Created for This Moment
In this powerful and faith-driven episode, we sit down with Emily Jones, the fearless chapter chair from Madison County, Alabama, whose journey into activism began with a spiritual calling and a book that lit a fire no one could extinguish. Emily shares the “God winks” that have guided her mission, from starting her chapter to boldly leading community events that challenged the status quo.
One of those pivotal moments? Organizing the See You at the Library event in August 2023 featuring Kirk Cameron and Riley Gaines. What started as a 20-person gathering quickly transformed into a 600-person, overflow-filled, AC-cut-off-in-the-August-heat kind of moment. Protestors, threats, and all – Emily and her team stood their ground and witnessed a community come alive with support.
Emily also dives into her chapter’s growing influence in Alabama: speaking at legislative hearings, helping write bills to protect children and families, and hosting forums with state leaders like the Attorney General. Through it all, she reflects on how being "created for this moment" means saying yes to the uncomfortable—and discovering purpose in the process.
Faith. Courage. Conviction. You won’t want to miss this episode.
