What Whitney Capps and Point of Grace Have To Say About It [Episode 359]

Spill the Beans Whitney Capps Point of Grace Fresh Grounded Faith Springfield Missouri

I cannot wait for you to hear this today! Whitney Capps and the incredible ladies of Point of Grace joined me at a Fresh Grounded Faith event in Springfield, Missouri, and let me tell you, there was something extra special about this day.

Maybe it was because Whitney brought such raw honesty while in the middle of cancer treatments. Or maybe it was the sweet friendship and humility that Point of Grace radiated from the stage. Or maybe it was because someone in the audience tried to set KC up with her cousin, Brenda. Ha!

Spill Beans Margaret Feinberg Michael O'Brien Fresh Grounded Faith Bloomington Illinois

Get ready to laugh, learn, and maybe even tear up a little as we spill the beans LIVE from a Fresh Grounded Faith event in Bloomington, Illinois! My good friends Margaret Feinberg and Michael O’Brien joined me, and what an honest, hope-filled conversation we had in answering questions from the audience.

We talked about the best way to handle stress and worry, how to know if God is calling you to step back in ministry, and what to do when grief knocks the wind out of you.

Remembering Kay Arthur

Remembering Kay Arthur

The first time I met Kay Arthur was at a conference where we both were speaking—me, the rookie, and her, the seasoned professional.

I was already seated at a table between two women when Kay walked in, saw me, looked at one of the women next to me and asked (or actually, told), “Please move over. I need to sit next to Jennifer.”

Of course the woman gladly moved. We all did what Kay said!

Fresh Grounded Faith Farewell

Hey, hey! I’ve got some news for you about this year…

One of my favorite things in the whole world is savoring an excellent cup of coffee with a few friends in the warm, fragrant setting of a good coffee shop. There’s just something about being surrounded by the laughter, the conversations, the music, and the scent of freshly roasted beans that settles me down and lifts me up.

That’s the flavor I’ve tried to capture at Fresh Grounded Faith conferences for over 17 years now.

But what a joy it was to gather in Bloomington-Normal where, despite what the name suggests, nothing was ordinary at our Fresh Grounded Faith event! Held at Second Presbyterian Church, this was a weekend full of extraordinary moments, and I can’t wait to share some highlights with you…
