About this episode

The episode discusses the foster care system and the founding of J's House through personal faith journeys.

On our debut episode of Overcoming Certainty, Kimberly talks with Nanette Lynch and Marla Wortman about J's House, a residential treatment center for boys. We talk about the difficulties in the foster care system and how God has worked in each of their lives to bring them together to co-found this ministry. Marla sits as the Executive Director and Nanette is a member of the board of J's House. We hope you enjoy this episode and find something to be curious about.
