[Podcast] Episode 220: Tapestries and Prodigals with Jelly Valimont

Our greatest victories are often born out of our deepest pains. On today’s episode of the AVAIL podcast, we sit down with Jelly Valimont. Jelly shares the inspiration behind her new books, Tapestry and Pathways of a Prodigal, two vastly different stories with a converging theme: God wastes nothing on no one. From broken identities made into God’s greatest work of art to the heartbreak of raising a prodigal child, Jelly offers indispensable hope for those questioning God’s plans and purposes for their lives and the lives of their families.
