God Moves Slow
God gave Perry and simple vision: To use radio and music to create awareness of just how much the Muslim world needs Jesus. He thought it’d take a year for that vision to be everything he hoped for. But 18 months in, with not much happening, he was ready to quit. It’s a conversation about not giving up on your God dreams.
There are days when Shawna feels like a faith rockstar and there are days when shefeels like a faith nobody. Just before Jesus gave the Great Commission we’re told that some of the disciples doubted. But he still gave them authority to teach, baptize, & make disciples. Doubt doesn’t disqualify you from being a world changing disciple maker!
Perry shares, “If the gospel is doing a deep work in me, the people who cross my path, and especially the people I do life with should never think: ‘Perry thinks he’s better than me.’ “
Jesus is really good at helping you sort out your emotions. Shawna realized that when her emotions feel like a jumbled up knot she hesitates to go to Jesus. She feels like she has to figure out what she’s feeling first.
As she was reading about Mary and Mary’s encounter with Jesus after he rose from the dead – how they were afraid and filled with joy – Shawna was encouraged to bring her knot of emotions to Jesus and let him help her untangle them.

Shawna Beyer
Shawna Beyer has a way of telling stories that create personal connection— to her, to one another, and to God. She has been a homeschool mom, church planter, project lead for a consulting company, and church staff member. Though she’s been involved in ministry with her husband (Dan) in Iowa, Arizona, and now Michigan, she was born and raised in Southern California and as they say, “You can take the girl out of California . . .” She is mom to four grown kids (Bryn, Drayson, Eden, and Haven) who no longer need her but humor her anyway. Shawna is passionate about the rhythms we weave into the fabric of our lives to fall more in love with God each day. Healthy foods are her go-to, but she will abandon that whole track in a heartbeat for a homemade cinnamon roll like Grandma used to make.
