In this inspiring episode of the Every Day Matters podcast, Pastor Jeff welcomes actress and author Danica McKellar for a heartfelt conversation about faith, purpose, and the journey of living authentically every single day.
Known for her role in The Wonder Years and her work in Hallmark and Great American Family movies, Danica opens up about her unexpected path toward faith, sharing how a childhood spent in a morally upright but non-believing home eventually led her to discover the deeper truths of Jesus' love and teachings.
Pastor Jeff emphasizes that following Jesus isn't just about showing up on Sundays—it’s about taking up your cross daily, as Luke 9:23 reminds us. Danica's story beautifully illustrates this daily walk, as she candidly reflects on how faith began to take root in her life through small moments and divine encounters. Their conversation is both uplifting and relatable, offering practical wisdom and encouragement for anyone looking to live out their faith with intention and impact, no matter where they are on their journey.
