","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":3035,"description":"⚾ Jacob Small’s story is one of growth, faith, and finding purpose. Growing up, baseball was a huge part of his life. He spent much of his life living with his grandparents and navigating some difficult seasons that helped shape who he is today. Through those experiences, Jacob learned resilience, perseverance, and the importance of having people who believe in you.\n❤️ One of the biggest blessings in Jacob’s life has been his wife, Ericka. Their growing family has brought incredible joy, laughter, and purpose.  Jacob shares how family has transformed his perspective and given him a deeper appreciation for what truly matters.\n🙏 Over the last couple years, Jacob’s relationship with Jesus has grown tremendously. What started as a journey of faith has become a passion for pursuing Christ wholeheartedly. Surrounded by strong accountability, leadership, and a “family he didn’t know he needed”. \n💪 Through life, work, marriage, fatherhood, and faith, Jacob has learned the importance of reevaluating priorities, locking in on what matters most, and stepping into his role as a protector and leader. His story is a reminder that God often meets us exactly where we are and continues to shape us into who He created us to be.\n✨ Jacob’s message is simple but powerful: Trust in the Lord and let Him work in you. No matter your past, God can use every part of your story for a greater purpose.\n\n#JesusFollower #faith #purpose #family #conversationswithbuddy\n🙏 Subscribe to Conversations with Buddy for more conversations that inspire faith, leadership, and impact.\n\n_ _ _\nFor more stories like this, go to: https://www.youtube.com/@BuddyJamesPuckett\nIf you or someone you know want to be on the podcast, please reach out to me on Instagram @conversationswithbuddy or text me at 503-851-8031. \n_ _ _\nAbout Buddy Puckett:\nBuddy Puckett has been in the mortgage and finance space and mentoring men for over 25 years.  A mentoring opportunity all started when he first began in the mortgage industry...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/oxFqe0AJP5S7qrhkdAltuVa8mFSqDbYbj8eGzi5h_mM/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzMyODkxLzE2NjAw/OTQ2NDAtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
