Learning to Trust God: Our Stories of Faith and Surrender

with my sister, Ginnie Cook

What does it look like to trust God when you’re used to relying on yourself?

In this personal conversation, I sit down with my sister, Ginnie Cook, to share our stories of faith and how we’ve come to know God through some very different experiences in our lives.

Ginnie shares her journey through a serious health condition and high-risk pregnancies, and the ways she experienced God’s peace and care along the way. I share how my faith has changed the way I approach business, motherhood and the pressure to make everything happen on my own.

Together, we explore what it means to surrender, loosen our grip on control, and trust God with the next step — even when we can’t see how everything will work out.

This is an honest conversation about what we’re still learning, and the grace we’ve found in coming to God without having it all figured out.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • Our journey from general spirituality to a personal relationship with God.

  • Finding peace through health challenges and uncertainty.

  • Letting go of self-reliance and trusting God with our work and provision.

  • Asking for God’s help in the everyday moments of motherhood.

  • What surrender looks like when letting go feels frightening.

  • Taking the next step without knowing the whole path.

  • Why we don’t need perfect faith to experience God’s care.
