ABOUT THIS EPISODE: This season, we’re interviewing the incredible members of WYM who make up our board, moderators team, and conference team! Jennifer is one of the founding fathers of Women in Youth Ministry—she’s been here since the very beginning, 11 years ago! When she and Heather first met, they were both serving in the SBC, working in youth ministry and Southern Baptist group homes (no coincidence, right?). Thirteen years later, they’re in two very different ministry contexts but still share a deep bond. In this episode, Jennifer opens up about her faith journey, her passion for kids in foster care, and how the Church can better support families who foster.
ABOUT JENNIFER: I’m Jennifer Weaver, and I serve as the Kids Minister at First Baptist Church of White Hall. I studied Christian Ministries at Williams Baptist University and later earned a master’s in Christian Education from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. My husband, Eddie, and I have beenmarried for eight years, and we’re thankful for our daughter, Lydia Joy, who we adopted after fostering. We’re also a foster family and love opening our home to children in need. I enjoy Disney trips, watching sports, and making memories with my people.
