High school bets, neon running vests, wet shoes, and what happens when you finally change your "no" to a "yes"!
In Episode 52, Joni shares her experience speaking at a women's event after years of staying out of the spotlight.

EP 51 // Lean Into Your Village (Psalm 29:11)
Sick kids, zero sleep, and the power of an SOS prayer text!
In Episode 51, Joni wraps up a 3-week series on sports and faith by sharing what happened when sickness hit both of her daughters during volleyball season. When you can't fix the exhaustion or the chaos, sometimes doing the hard thing means raising your hand and asking your people to pray. Join us as we talk about Psalm 29:11, Philippians 4:6–7, writing "strength and peace" on your arm, and why we were never meant to carry the heavy weeks alone.
Key Scriptures:
Psalm 29:11: "The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace."
Philippians 4:6–7: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God..."
