   Breast Cancer: Faith, Treatment & Survivorship | Jennifer’s Story

   Have you ever wondered how you would respond if you heard the words, “You have breast cancer”? In this episode, I sit down with my friend Jennifer Harr to talk honestly about her breast cancer journey—from diagnosis and treatment to surgery, recovery, and survivorship. Jennifer shares the moments that tested her faith, the people who surrounded her with love and prayer, and the ways God met her throughout the journey. We talk about the importance of support, allowing others to walk alongside you, finding moments of joy in the middle of difficult circumstances, and continuing to live while facing uncertainty. Jennifer also shares some of the practical realities of breast cancer treatment and recovery, including her experience participating in a clinical trial involving a lymph-node bypass procedure. My prayer is that Jennifer's story encourages women facing breast cancer, strengthens those walking alongside someone they love, and reminds all of us that even in life's most difficult seasons, we do not have to walk alone. In This Episode: • Jennifer's breast cancer diagnosis and treatment journey • Faith in the midst of fear and uncertainty • The importance of family, friendship, and community • The Scripture postcards that encouraged Jennifer throughout treatment • Why isolation can make a difficult season even harder • Finding joy and continuing to live during treatment • Jennifer's experience with surgery, recovery, and survivorship • Her experience participating in a lymph-node bypass clinical trial • Encouragement for women facing breast cancer Medical Disclaimer This episode shares one breast cancer survivor's personal experience with diagnosis, treatment, surgery, recovery, and survivorship.

   While We Were Still Sinners: The Grace That Saves | Romans 5:6–9

   Have you ever felt like you needed to clean yourself up before coming to God? Romans 5:6–9 reminds us that while we were still helpless—while we were still sinners—Christ died for us. In this 20th episode of Glow Up in Grace, I share what God impressed upon my heart as I sat with Romans 5:6–9 through the practice of Lectio Divina, which I learned about through a recent She Shall Be Called Woman Bible study. As I sat with this passage, several words and phrases seemed to jump from the page: helpless, appointed time, God proves His love, justified by His blood, and saved through Him. And one truth became especially clear to me: Grace before behavior. Christ before self-improvement. Salvation before transformation. In This Episode: • What it means to be helpless without Christ • Why we don't have to clean ourselves up before coming to God • The significance of Christ dying at the appointed time • How God proved His love for us while we were still sinners • Why the blood and the cross remain central to the Gospel • The difference between inspiration and the good news of salvation • Why those who know Jesus are called to share Him with others This month also marks one year since I launched Glow Up in Grace, and I can't think of a more fitting message for Episode 20 than returning to the heart of the Gospel: Jesus Christ. My prayer is that this episode reminds you how deeply God loves you, what Christ has already done for you, and encourages you to share that good news with someone else. 📧 glowupingracepodcast@gmail.com (mailto:glowupingracepodcast@gmail.com) ▶️ Watch on YouTube: Glow Up in Grace 🎧 Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

   Do You Know Who I Am? Knowing Jesus and Answering His Call

   Have you ever stopped to ask yourself—not what other people say about Jesus—but who you say He is? In this episode, I walk through the story of Peter and what his journey teaches us about knowing Jesus for ourselves, hearing His voice, following Him even through our imperfections, and answering His call to share Him with others. Peter boldly declared that Jesus was the Christ, yet his journey also included misunderstanding, fear, denial, and failure. Still, Jesus knew Peter completely, restored him, and gave him an assignment. His story reminds us that genuine faith does not require a flawless life. In This Episode: • Why Jesus asked, “Who do you say that I am?” • What “Hear Him” means for us today • How to recognize God's voice among competing voices • What Peter's failures teach us about grace and restoration • Why genuine faith does not require perfection • How Jesus restored Peter and gave him an assignment • What the Great Commission looks like in everyday life • Simple ways we can share Jesus with others At the heart of this message are four simple reminders: Know Him. Hear Him. Follow Him. Share Him. My prayer is that this conversation encourages you to know Jesus for yourself, listen for His voice, follow Him faithfully, and answer His call in whatever way He has placed before you.
