What if being chosen by God doesn’t mean having it all together?
In this episode, we’re diving into the life of Mary—the ordinary young woman God chose for an extraordinary calling—and what her story teaches us about faith, surrender, and trusting God when the plan doesn’t make sense.

Mary wasn’t chosen because she was perfect. She was chosen because she was willing. And for moms navigating motherhood, marriage, mental health, grief, and the everyday chaos of life, that truth hits deep.

We talk about:

• What it really means to trust God when you feel unqualified

• Why obedience doesn’t require perfection (and never has)

• How comparison steals our confidence in God’s calling

• Finding peace when God’s plan feels overwhelming or unclear

• Applying Mary’s faith to modern motherhood and real life struggles

If you’ve ever felt like you’re not enough, behind, or unsure if you’re doing life “right,” this episode is for you.
