SHOW NOTES:

Faith in Native communities has often been carried quietly—through stories, prayers, daily example, and resilient love. This episode honors the women who have kept faith alive across generations and invites listeners to reflect on how Native believers in Jesus can intentionally pass faith on to children, youth, and future generations in ways that are relational, culturally rooted, and Christ-centered.
