S1:EP7 Rebecca’s Testimony Part 2: The Stone

Welcome back to Moms With A Call, where honest faith meets real life. In Part 2 of her testimony, Rebecca opens up about her early years, growing up in a home where one parent loved Jesus and the other had no relationship with Him. That duality created both safety and confusion—a tension many listeners will find deeply relatable. Together, McKenzie and Rebecca unpack how childhood labels like “too sensitive” can shape our self-worth, how well-meaning family dynamics can still leave emotional imprints, and how early encounters with religion can either draw us in or push us away. This episode gently holds the in-between—the place where questions begin and identity is quietly forming. We talk about: Growing up between two spiritual worldviews Sensitivity, emotional awareness, and how they’re often misunderstood The complexity of loving family members who also cause pain Parenting with gentleness and grace in light of our own stories How disconnection from the Church shaped her faith journey This is a tender chapter of Rebecca’s story, one that reminds us that identity isn’t built in a moment—it’s formed in the quiet wrestlings of our becoming.
