Episode 123: Board by Board: Meshali Mitchell’s Story of Being Restored Through Her 1886 Farm House
In this episode, we sit down with photographer, author, and storyteller Meshali Mitchell for a deeply moving conversation about the intersection of faith, restoration, and a calling. Meshali shares the behind-the-scenes journey of restoring a crumbling 1886 farmhouse—one board and one prayer at a time—while God was simultaneously restoring her own heart.
From the ache of waiting seasons to the beauty of healing spaces, Meshali opens up about what it means to trust God’s timing, listen for His voice, and lean into the work of both physical and spiritual renewal. This episode will inspire anyone who has ever found themselves in need of a fresh start or wondered if God can bring purpose out of broken places.
Grab a coffee, settle in, and prepare to be encouraged by a story full of grit, grace, and the goodness of God.
