Welcome to Chapter and Verse! In this powerful debut episode, Jill shares her raw testimony of growing up in Flint, Michigan, in a tiny 25-person Missionary Baptist church where faith meant following rules rather than building relationship. But this isn't just another feel-good story. Jill courageously opens up about the devastating moment that shattered her faith: the brutal murder of her best friend Robin — a moment that caused Jill to consciously walk away from God entirely. From learning to drive on a 1940s tractor while mowing the church lawn to directing traffic during a chaotic Black Friday shopping trip (much to the horror of bewildered Southerners), this episode explores what it really means to wrestle with faith when life hits hard. Chapter and Verse is a podcast for people who love Jesus but also love being honest about how messy and complicated life can be. This is real talk about faith, doubt, loss, and the long road back to believing again.

Kerrye and Jill dive into the book of Jonah, exploring why this biblical prophet might actually be one of the biggest jerks in the Bible. From running away to Tarshish (basically an ancient cruise destination) to throwing a tantrum when God shows mercy to his enemies, Jonah's story is full of relatable human flaws. The hosts break down each chapter with humor and insight, discussing the wickedness of Nineveh, the significance of the big fish (not whale!), and how sometimes you need to throw people out of your boat. Plus, they explore what it means when God uses imperfect people for His purposes and why Jonah's honest prayers from the belly of a fish teach us about authentic communication with God. Whether you grew up in church or are new to Bible stories, this episode brings fresh perspective to a familiar tale while asking the important question: are we sometimes the Jonah in our own story?

Kimberly Turner shares her powerful journey from childhood sexual abuse to healing through faith.

A moving reminder that no one is beyond God's reach.
