The Devoted Dreamers Podcast


Whether you have a dream in your heart or aren’t sure what God might be calling you to, The Devoted Dreamers Podcast will encourage you on the journey. This space is dedicated to sharing stories every week of women who are following Jesus and pursuing their God-given gifts in beautifully imperfect ways. You’ll hear about the fears and challenges that threaten their dreams as well as the joy, courage and confidence that comes from following Jesus even in the unexpected…especially in the unexpected.

I’m your host, Merritt Onsa, and my prayer is that this show will meet you where you are in your walk with God. I hope you will come away from the podcast each week with encouragement to begin pursuing your own dreams even when you still feel flawed, imperfect, unfinished and not ready. Because if you wait until you are perfect, you will never take the first step. Join us!

Do your dreams feel bigger than you? Has God revealed something that wasn’t what you expected?

My guest this week is Jamie Kirschner, founder and creator of UncommonTEEN. Her God-shaped dream is something she never expected. Missions work was what she had planned for her future; but God had a different plan a little closer to home: serving teen girls as they navigate their faith and find their identity in Jesus. God took Jamie’s experience of growing up without a support system, and He’s using it so other teen girls don’t have to navigate their journey alone.  

In the episode we’re talking about:

  1. Why God might call us into big dreams,
  2. Taking little steps versus leaps of faith, and
  3. One baby step you can (and must!) take right now.

MORE ABOUT JAMIE:

Jamie Kirschner is the founder and creator of UncommonTEEN and the host of the UncommonTEEN Podcast serving Christian teen girls. Growing up in a small town in Missouri, Jamie longed to have someone guide her through the real-life issues that all teen girls have in life, only to find herself navigating the journey alone. At the age of 18, through the grace of God, she came to know Jesus as her personal Lord and Savior. After graduating high school, she began serving in camp ministry where she discovered her passion and purpose of serving teen girls. Jamie now resides outside of Nashville, TN, has been serving in youth ministry faithfully for over 20 years.
