The Family Room with Billie Jauss

Join Billie in The Family Room, a place where we trade inner chaos for peace, purpose, and powerful connection. If you feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or spiritually dry, you are not alone. Here, we’ll clear the clutter, quiet the noise, and create rhythms of peace so you can reconnect with God, yourself, and the people you love. Your peace matters. Your purpose is calling.
