051 || How to Trust God When Dreams Disappoint || Cari Jenkins

Cari Jenkins lives in Englewood, Colorado, where she is co-Director of Urban Skye, a non-profit ministry that seeks to expand the Church's vision of how to grow the Kingdom of God in Denver. She is also the co-founder and co-director of Table Collective, an organization creating cultures of hospitality, where all are welcome. A creative, a thinker, a speaker, author, occasional blogger, constant re-decorator, gatherer, host, friend and guide, Cari desires to see people formed by Jesus and live out of their formation for the transformation of the places they live, work and play.

IF YOU’VE EVER WRESTLED WITH DISAPPOINTMENT RELATED TO YOUR DREAM, THIS IS THE EPISODE FOR YOU.

Cari has a beautiful dream for all people. You’ll hear her talk about our identity in Christ, all that she’s had to wrestle through when her dream didn’t turn out the way she planned, and how her belief was impacted by that disappointment.

I’ve loved getting to know Cari and see her sincere heart for all people to know our worth and identity, and I’ve benefited from her passion to bring hope to our city during a tumultuous season in our nation.

Whatever you’re doing while you listen, I pray what you hear from Cari will bring deep encouragement to your soul.

SCRIPTURE:

Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, 
he gave the right to become children of God—

~ John 1:12

See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
~ 1 John 3:1
