What does it look like to be deeply rooted in Christ in a world of cultural chaos? Pastor Mark Vance is joined by Emily Jensen, the new co-host of the Equip Podcast, to share her story and introduce a new season of Equip focused on the Ten Commandments.
Show Notes:
In this conversation, Emily shares her journey of faith—from growing up in church, to walking away during college, to surrendering her life to Christ in a Starbucks. She also talks about meeting her husband Brad, raising five kids, and the surprising ways God has provided for their family.
Together, Mark and Emily reflect on the story behind her podcast, Risen Motherhood, and why connecting biblical truth to everyday life matters. They also preview Cornerstone Church’s fall teaching series on the Ten Commandments and how Equip will dig deeper each week: asking the practical questions that come up in the car ride home.

- (04:55) Emily’s journey of faith and the pivotal moment she cried out to God
- (09:59) The story of moving to Ames and raising five kids
