Keeping the Faith with Kim

Have you ever looked at a situation in your life and thought, “There’s just not enough…” Not enough time. Not enough strength. Not enough faith. In this episode, we’re diving into Luke 9:11–17 and the beautiful truth that Jesus is more than enough. When we stop focusing on the problem and turn our eyes to the Provider, miracles happen. He doesn’t ask us for perfection—He asks us to bring what we do have and trust Him with it. Whether you’re in a season of doubt, exhaustion, or just feeling a little stretched thin, this message is a reminder that God can do a lot when we give Him our little. If this episode speaks to your heart, I’d love it if you’d like, share, and comment. Your support helps this message reach even more hearts who need to hear that He. Is.

Hey friends, welcome back to Keeping the Faith with Kim. It has been a little while—since January, in fact—and today, I want to tell you why. It wasn’t burnout. It wasn’t a valley. It was God. In His beautiful, surprising way, He called me back into the classroom—back to the place where my heart has always been: teaching. And when God calls, you listen. So I stepped away from the mic for a season and walked in obedience to a new chapter. This episode is all about those “But God” moments—the ones where our plans shift, our paths reroute, and we realize He was doing something far greater than we imagined. I’ll be sharing what He’s been up to in my life, what I’ve learned since returning to the classroom, and how He’s been stirring my heart to pick the mic back up again. If you’ve ever had a season where God redirected your steps in a way you didn’t expect—but it ended up being exactly what your soul needed—this one’s for you. Grab your coffee, get comfy, and let’s talk about what happens when we leave room for a But God in our stories.

Welcome to Keeping the Faith with Kim! Today’s episode is all about finding God’s grace in the midst of our heartache. We’re diving into one of the most comforting Beatitudes: “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” If you’ve ever walked through a season of grief, disappointment, or pain, you know how overwhelming it can feel. But Jesus reminds us that even in our brokenness, there is a blessing. It’s in those tender, raw moments of mourning that God meets us with His comfort, offering peace, healing, and hope like only He can. In this episode, we’ll unpack what this Beatitude means for our lives, reflect on how God uses our pain for His purpose, and explore practical ways to invite His comfort into our struggles. I’ll share some personal stories and lessons I’ve learned along the way, and together, we’ll discover how to cling to the promise of His presence in the brokenness. So grab your Bible, a journal, and maybe a cozy blanket—let’s lean into this sacred truth and find the blessing waiting for us in the midst of the mourning. Let’s get started!

Welcome to episode 23 of Keeping the Faith with Kim! (even though I say episode 21!! Oops!!) I am so grateful to have my son, Zack Dandurand, joining me for a very special conversation. Over the next few weeks, we will be diving deeper into each of the Beatitudes, unpacking their meaning and how we can apply them to our daily lives. Today, we're starting with one that is foundational to our faith: "Blessed are the poor in spirit." This Beatitude invites us to embrace humility and recognize our need for God, reminding us that true blessing comes not from our own strength, but from acknowledging our dependence on Him. Zack and I will reflect on what it means to be poor in spirit and how this attitude can transform our hearts and lives. So, let's dive in and explore how we can live out this powerful truth. Don't forget to comment, like and share!

Hello friends, and welcome back to Keeping the Faith with Kim! I’m thrilled you’re here because today’s episode is all about joy—and who doesn’t need more of that in their life? Joining us is the incredibly inspiring Hannah Crews, a Christian author, spokesperson, and content creator with a heart on fire for Jesus. Hannah’s mission is one we can all embrace: encouraging us to lighten up and discover the abundant joy waiting for us in Christ. Hannah is the author of Goodness Gracious: 90 Unfiltered Devotions for this Sometimes-Too-Serious Life, a beautiful devotional that invites us not to take ourselves too seriously and to embrace the joy of life with Jesus. But behind her radiant positivity is a story of resilience and healing. Today, Hannah will open up about her experience with deep "church hurt" that led her to step away from her faith for a time. Through her journey, she discovered that God’s love was still waiting for her on the other side of that hurt, and she’ll share how she found her way back to faith—and to the joy she now shares with others. So, if you’re ready for some laughter, inspiration, and maybe a few reminders to let go of the heavy stuff, this episode is for you! Grab your favorite cozy drink and join us as we explore the lightness, laughter, and joy that come from a life rooted in Jesus—even when the journey takes us through some unexpected valleys.

Welcome, my friends, to another episode of Keeping the Faith with Kim! I’m your host, Kim Dandurand, and I am so grateful you’re joining us today. In this special episode, we’re diving deep into a topic that I know so many of us can relate to—finding Christ in the chaos. Whether it's the busyness of daily life, personal struggles, or the unexpected storms that hit, it can be challenging to hold on to our faith when everything feels out of control. Today, I’m excited to have two incredible women, my sisters in Christ, Joanna Hendershott and Regina Edwards, joining me for this conversation. These women have walked through their own seasons of chaos, and their stories of finding peace in Christ through it all are sure to inspire and encourage you.

Welcome back to Keeping the Faith with Kim. Today, we’re diving into a powerful reflection on Luke 9:1-6, where Jesus sends out the Apostles to preach the kingdom of God. I love this passage because it’s not just a story of the Apostles being sent—it’s a call to each of us, a reminder that we, too, are called to be messengers of God’s love, grace, and truth. In these verses, we see Jesus give His disciples the authority to heal, cast out demons, and proclaim the Good News. They were ordinary men called to do extraordinary things, not because of their own strength but because of the power of Christ working through them. So, what does that mean for us today? How are we called to live out this same mission in our everyday lives? In this episode, we’ll unpack what it looks like to be sent out by God in our own unique ways. Whether it’s in our homes, workplaces, communities, or even just in the everyday interactions we have with others, we are called to be His hands and feet. Together, let’s explore how we can embrace this calling, lean into the gifts He’s given us, and boldly share His love with the world. And don’t forget to like, comment, and SHARE…just like this scripture asks us to! Spread the word, encourage one another, and let’s keep building each other up in faith. Grab your Bible, open your heart, and let’s reflect on what it means to be sent out, just like the Apostles were.

Welcome to Episode 17 of Keeping the Faith with Kim. Today, we’re diving deep into a topic that’s really close to my heart: Redefining Beauty and Worth. If you’ve ever struggled with body image or self worth issues, you’re not alone—I’ve been there too. For so long, I let the world's standards define my beauty and my worth, constantly feeling like I wasn't enough. But over time, and through a lot of faith and prayer, I’ve learned to see myself differently—through God’s eyes. In this episode, I’ll be opening up about my own struggles and how I’ve come to embrace true beauty. I’ll share some impactful quotes that have helped change my perspective, and we’ll dive into what it means to redefine beauty according to God’s Word. Because God’s view of beauty is so much deeper and more meaningful than what the world tells us. It’s about the heart, the soul, and the character that reflects His love. So, whether you’re listening for the first time or you’re a regular on the podcast, I’m glad you’re here. Hit that play button, and let’s journey together towards seeing ourselves as God sees us—fearfully and wonderfully made. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and share if this message resonates with you.
