🌾 You’re Not Enough by Allie Beth Stuckey

🌾 Listen to Angela’s Pastor, Josh Howerton

What does it look like to trust God when your dreams take longer than you expected, your responsibilities feel overwhelming, and you're still figuring out what faith looks like in your everyday life?

In this episode of Faithful Harvest, Angela sits down with Bryce Albright, a first-generation cattle rancher in Wyoming, mom of two little girls, and executive director of the National Dude Ranchers Association. Between raising a young family, building a cow herd, managing a demanding career, and even running a sourdough baking side hustle, Bryce knows what it means to work hard toward a dream while learning to trust God's timing.

Bryce shares how opportunities she once couldn't have imagined fell into place, how her relationship with God has grown gradually rather than through one dramatic moment, and how the women around her have helped carry her through difficult seasons of motherhood and mental health struggles.

Together, Angela and Bryce talk honestly about the challenges of building a ranching operation from the ground up, the pressure of professional leadership, navigating family planning, and finding a church and Christian community in rural areas where options can be limited.

This conversation is a reminder that you don't have to have everything figured out to take the next step. God can be at work long before you recognize it, and the waiting seasons can be just as important as the harvest.

In this episode, you'll hear about:

• Building a ranching dream from the ground up: Bryce's journey as a first-generation cattle rancher, starting a cow herd on 25 acres, and working toward a future where ranching can be the family's primary livelihood.
• Trusting God's timing: How unexpected opportunities shaped Bryce's career and ranching journey, and why God's timing doesn't always match our plans.
• Growing in faith gradually: Why a relationship with God doesn't always begin with one dramatic, life-changing moment—and how looking back can reveal His presence along the way.
• Balancing motherhood, work, and ranch life: The realities of raising two young children while managing a demanding career and pursuing big dreams.
• The importance of Christian community: How faithful friendships, prayer, and encouragement helped Bryce through postpartum depression and difficult seasons.
• Finding a church in rural America: What to do when you haven't found a church home and why even one or two trusted Christian friends can make a difference.
• Making room for supplemental income: How Bryce turned her love of sourdough baking into a side hustle through preorders and farmers markets.
• Knowing when your family is complete: An honest conversation about family planning, trusting God, and seeking wisdom and peace in deeply personal decisions.
• Putting in the work while trusting God: Why faith doesn't mean waiting for everything to fall into place without taking action.
• Being present in the season you're in: Bryce's simple but powerful reminder to stop living five steps ahead and be here now.

If you're a farmer, rancher, homesteader, or rural mom working hard to build a life you believe God has called you to, this episode is for you. Keep showing up, keep doing the work in front of you, and don't lose heart when the harvest feels far away.

As Galatians 6:9 reminds us, don't grow weary of doing good. In due season, we will reap a harvest if we don't give up.
