Say Goodbye to Joint Pain: The Future of Arthritis Treatment is Here!

In this episode, Wendy shares a powerful message that changed her perspective after hearing Cody Wilson speak at church. What started as an incredible service turned into a deep reminder about how easy it is to let life, busyness, and distractions slowly replace our “first love”—Jesus.

Wendy talks about what it really means to put God first in everyday life, not just in words but in how we spend our time, structure our days, and guard our hearts. Through real-life stories and simple examples, she shares how God doesn’t just want a relationship—He wants closeness, attention, and love.

This episode challenges you to look at your calendar, your priorities, and your heart, and ask: Is God truly first, or just first when it’s convenient?
