Discovering Christ's LOVE & Self-Worth in a Dumpster with Jen Spencer

What happens when a woman who considered herself "human garbage" discovers she's actually a treasure worth saving? Jen Spencer spent two decades trapped in methamphetamine addiction and homelessness, convinced God hated her as much as she hated herself. Her warped understanding of repentance left her buried under mountains of shame, believing she was born bad and beyond redemption. In this episode of Why We Believe with host Nathan Gwilliam, Jen shares the desperate prayer behind a storage unit that changed everything, the divine encounter that felt like God running toward her instead of away, and the moment she realized she'd been living in a hell of her own making through self-judgment. After 10 years of sobriety, she now leads the Turtle Shelter Project, creating over 6,000 thermal survival vests for homeless individuals. Jen's transformation reveals that no one is too broken for divine love, and sometimes our lowest moments become launching pads for missions that save thousands of lives.
