142: Cari Jenkins and Who You Really Are

Cari Jenkins is an author, spiritual director, and Executive Director of Urban Skye. Today, Cari shares how hard it was to find a mentor who listened to Jesus, her five years of undoing, and learning to sing the song of identity in Jesus. She found Jesus to be completely faithful, even accounting for her unwillingness to listen. Cari’s tender love and experience of him will encourage you to seek his love and your identity in him, too.

Listen to Cari’s story today!

Stories Cari shared:

Becoming the Executive Director of Urban Skye and their work
Growing up in Omaha, Nebraska in a strong, Christian family
Deciding she wanted to love Jesus back at four years old
Asking someone in her church how to hear God’s voice
Meeting a woman who would hear from the Lord and making her a mentor
How John 10:10 helps us listen to God’s voice
Examples of how she has heard God’s voice and taken action
Paying attention to the what Scripture says about Jesus
Praying God would take away anything she placed identity in besides Jesus
How she learned her identity is in Jesus

Great quotes from Cari:

I want to invest in people who want to invest in people.

I am untethered much of the time from the things that at one time I put my identity.

Identity is the song I’m meant to sing.

When we begin to know the voice of the shepherd, we can actually begin to know what does he say about who we are; it will always lead to goodness, truth, and beauty. Always.
