6. Jenn's Testimony: I Met Jesus In a Prison Cell

In this deeply vulnerable episode of God’s Got It, Jenn shares her full testimony — from growing up around religion but never truly knowing God, to spiraling through perfectionism, performance, addiction, shame, divorce, and ultimately federal prison.What began as a story marked by anger toward God, identity confusion, and relentless striving became the very path that led her home. After being sentenced to 39 months in federal prison, Jen encountered Jesus in a way she never had before — stripped of distraction, status, and self-protection. Through daily Scripture, worship, prison ministry, yoga, and later trauma-informed breathwork and somatic healing, she began reclaiming her body, her identity, and her worth.This conversation explores redemption, nervous system healing, prison transformation, and the intersection of faith and somatic practices. We talk about what it really means to come home to God — not through perfection, but through surrender. If you’ve ever wrestled with shame, questioned your worthiness, or wondered whether God could truly love you in your mess… this episode is for you.In this episode, we cover:Growing up around Christianity but feeling no emotional connection to GodLosing faith after experiencing grief and anger toward GodPerfectionism, people-pleasing, and the pressure to performDivorce, addiction, and living a double life rooted in shameFacing federal charges and being sentenced to prisonFinding Jesus before incarceration and bringing a Bible into prisonExperiencing God deeply inside prison wallsReclaiming the body through yoga and praise dance ministrySomatic healing, trauma-informed breathwork, and nervous system regulationWrestling with dogma vs. experiencing God as unconditional loveWhy prison ultimately saved her lifeHow healing in the body can bring us closer to ChristThis is a story of redemption.
