Summary
Have you ever wondered if your small act of obedience is really making a difference?
In today’s episode, Meredith Brock and Kaley Olson sit down with author and pastor Jennie Lusko to talk about the moment her “yes” became deeply personal. When Jennie and her family traveled to Bolivia to meet three children they sponsor through Compassion International, what they experienced was far more than meaningful — it changed the way they see faith, generosity, and the people God has placed right in front of them.
Through honest storytelling and spiritual insight, Jennie shares how stepping outside her everyday rhythm opened her eyes to what God had been doing all along.
If you’ve ever questioned whether your obedience matters — this conversation will remind you that it does.
You’ll learn:
- Why it’s easy to lose sight of the impact of your everyday obedience.
- How meeting her sponsored children reshaped Jennie’s understanding of generosity.
- What children living in poverty taught her family about contentment and joy.
- How God uses simple acts of faith to create lasting, eternal impact.
- Why stepping outside your comfort zone can open your eyes to what God is doing.
