Devoted: Running the Race

In this episode, we start with a simple weekend recap—date nights, family time, and a special baptism—but quickly find ourselves in a deeper conversation about motherhood, faith, and the weight of raising children to know God. We talk through the tension of wanting to guide our kids well while also releasing control, trusting that God loves them even more than we do. From navigating big decisions like school and spiritual growth, to unpacking our own upbringing in church culture, this conversation is honest, unfiltered, and rooted in grace. Jennifer also shares about completing her 24th half marathon—running not just for physical endurance, but as an act of surrender, healing, and faith. Through grief, loss, and life's unexpected turns, running has become a powerful reminder of what it means to keep going and trust God with every step. We reflect on how easy it is to give things to God—and how much harder it is to leave them there. Whether it's our children, our decisions, or even this podcast, we're reminded that faith isn't just in the letting go… it's in the trusting after. This episode is for anyone learning to release control, embrace grace, and keep running their race—one step at a time.
