Janie Sandel - Former UGA Cross Country Runner - The Purpose God Had All Along

What happens when the dream you worked for your whole life suddenly changes? In this episode of Beam Boldly, Brooke sits down with former UGA Cross Country runner Janie Sandel to talk about identity, surrender, and learning to trust God when your plans don’t go the way you thought they would. Janie shares the incredible story of being recruited to run at the University of Georgia after a major knee injury that doctors said might end her career. What looked like a setback turned into an opportunity she never could have predicted. But the story doesn’t stop there. After arriving at Georgia and facing more injuries that ultimately led to her medically retiring from the team, Janie had to wrestle with some hard questions. What happens when the thing you thought defined you is taken away? And how do you keep trusting God when the path forward looks completely different than the one you imagined? Through it all, Janie discovered that her purpose was never about performance. It was about people, obedience, and being willing to let God use her story in ways she never expected. This conversation is an honest look at what it means to follow God even when the future feels uncertain and the plan doesn’t make sense.
