Flourish: Everyday Faithfulness
Flourishing isn’t found in a single moment of triumph but in the steady, everyday choice to press toward the Lord. Whether in the mundane routines, the hidden ordinary moments, the heavy weight of hard seasons, or the joy of great ones—God meets with us there and we come to know and delight in God Himself. Over time, our faithful obedience reshapes our hearts, align our lives with His, and grow in us a flourishing faith that endures.
Our Speaker
Kristin Jacobsen
Jesus captured Kristin’s heart at a very young age and ignited within her a desire to serve the kingdom of God with her life. For over a decade and a half, she has taught the Bible in schools and churches, most recently serving as a Women’s Minister. Her passion is to equip and encourage others to use their unique gifts to make earth more like heaven.
A graduate of Moody Bible Institute and a Chicagoland native, Kristin recently relocated with her family to the Kansas City Metro where her husband Dan is a pastor. Together they have three beautiful (and busy!) kids.
