What if your hardest seasons were actually shaping something divine in your story? Join me for a heartfelt conversation with Mitch Bakker, founder of IDA Design and author of Drawn, as he shares how a crisis of faith led him to discover God’s fingerprints in everyday life. Through powerful storytelling, Mitch reminds us that even our detours and doubts can lead to deeper purpose. Together, we explore faith, resilience, and the beauty of human connection—like the moving story of a man who gave his kidney to a friend’s son. 

 

This episode invites you to see God’s grace in unexpected places and find hope through the power of your own story.

And remember, I'd love to connect more on Instagram, where you'll find me at @donnaajones. And don’t forget to subscribe so you don’t miss a single episode!

If you’ve ever had a conversation where you’ve walked away thinking, “Wow! That was just what I needed”, you know you felt encouraged, learned a thing or two, laughed, and maybe even felt a bit challenged.

Author, national speaker, and pastor’s wife, Donna Jones provides life-giving “that’s just what I needed” conversations to help you know, love, and follow God in the midst of real-life--the one with daily demands and crazy cultural chaos. Sometimes she’ll welcome a guest we can learn from; sometimes the conversation will be just her and you.

 But, Donna’s hope is that each conversation will be exactly what you need.
