About this episode

Jillian Dance shares her journey of faith and purpose after suffering a broken foot during her final lacrosse season.

This week on Stepping Stones, I sat down with Jillian Dance to talk about a senior season that didn't go according to plan. Just five games into her final lacrosse season, Jillian suffered a broken foot—a devastating setback for any athlete. But what seemed like the end of her season became an opportunity for God to work in unexpected ways. From organizing team Bible studies and praying with teammates to helping lead a teammate to faith in Jesus, Jillian discovered that God still had important work for her to do, even from the sidelines. Join us as Jillian shares how God used disappointment, injury, and uncertainty to teach her about purpose, faithfulness, and trusting His plans over her own.
