"Nobody can tell me God isn't real." Those are Jennifer Hebert's words — and after hearing her story, you'll understand exactly why.

Jennifer is a third-generation longshoreman, a mother of four, and a woman whose faith was built through real life — raising two kids alone by 23, fighting court battles, and working the docks full time just to keep it all together. But everything shifted the day she showed up to give away mittens to the homeless and witnessed God move in ways she never expected.

In Episode 9 of Faith in the Journey, Jennifer and Troy get raw and real about what faith looks like when life is hard, when something feels missing even though everything looks fine, and what happens when you simply say yes to God's call. From a ministry that grew overnight to miracles she witnessed with her own eyes — this conversation will reignite your faith and remind you that God rewards those who show up. 🔥
