135 – Faith That Stands Through Every Generation with Rebecca Price Janney
What does it look like to live a faith that stands firm when culture changes, truth is challenged, and obedience costs something?
In this episode of the Bold Faith Now podcast, Missy chats with author and historian Rebecca Price Janney about her Heirs of Freedom series and how historical fiction can remind us that while the culture around us may change, God’s truth never does.
Rebecca shares how her love of history shapes her writing, why accuracy matters when bringing the past to life, and how the spiritual struggles Christians faced more than a century ago aren’t all that different from what believers face today.
In this episode, Missy and Rebecca discuss:
-
Why the challenges to biblical truth in the early 1900s feel surprisingly familiar today
-
How Rebecca’s own seminary experiences helped shape Jacob’s struggle with faith in In the Land of the Morning Calm
-
What Shelby and Parker teach us about following God when obedience means leaving comfort behind
-
How one faithful life can influence generations and why God can use ordinary people to make an extraordinary difference
Rebecca also shares the heart behind the Heirs of Freedom series, the importance of passing faith and freedom from one generation to the next, and why she is hopeful about what God is doing among young adults today.
Remember to live boldly for Jesus and let your light shine bright for Him!

Welcome Friends!
My name is Missy, and I love Jesus!
I am a Christ-follower, wife, mom, author, speaker, Colson Fellow, and host of the Bold Faith Now podcast. My heart is to encourage believers to live boldly for Jesus in a world that often tells us to stay quiet, blend in, or keep our faith tucked safely in the shadows.
Through writing, speaking, and podcasting, I help believers grow in bold faith, stand firm in truth, and view the world through a biblical worldview. Because following Jesus was never meant to be passive. It is a call to shine His light, speak truth with grace, and take the next obedient step.
My prayer is simple: to point others to Jesus, encourage bold faith, and remind believers that now is the time to live courageously for Him. Join the Bold Faith community and listen to the podcast for encouragement to live out your faith with conviction, clarity, and courage.
