Feeling spiritually depleted from caregiving? You're not alone.

In this powerful conversation, Rachel Wojo sits down with author and fellow caregiver Jess Ronne to discuss what no one tells you about prayer when you're exhausted, overwhelmed, and running on empty.

Jess shares the breakthrough moment that changed everything: when the Holy Spirit whispered to her heart while she was changing her son's diaper for the thousandth time, "This is holy work." That revelation transformed her 19-year caregiving journey with her profoundly disabled son, Lucas—and it can transform yours too.

In this episode, you'll learn:
The honest prayer that sustained both Rachel and Jess through their darkest caregiving moments
A simple 5-10 minute morning practice that invites God's presence into your overwhelming day
How to reframe mundane tasks (diaper changes, endless laundry, medication schedules) as sacred acts
Why "grit and grace" both matter—and when to lean into each one
The truth every caregiver needs to hear: this season won't last forever

This episode is for you if:
You're caring for someone with special needs, chronic illness, dementia, or aging parents
You feel guilty that you don't pray "enough" or "the right way"
Your to-do list is so long that connecting with God feels impossible
You wonder if anyone sees or values what you're doing

Jess Ronne is the author of Caregiving with Grit and Grace: A Devotional and founder of The Lucas Project. Through November (National Caregivers Month), she's offering a special BOGO deal: two books for $15 at https://jessplusthemess.com

Listen now and discover how God meets you in the basement, at the bedside, and in every overwhelming moment.
