Libby Nethery shared how God’s goodness and faithfulness have been evident in her life, even through seasons of uncertainty. At the height of the pandemic, she watched the decline in teenagers’ mental, emotional, and spiritual health, something she also experienced in her own family. Instead of turning away, Libby leaned into prayer and sought God’s direction. He led her to pursue a Master’s in Social Work, and eventually return to Shelby County Schools as a mental health consultant, where she now serves students, families, and staff with compassion.
Her journey of lament and trust revealed a deep truth: even in the hardest valleys, “our help comes from the Lord.” Out of her obedience came initiatives like Adopt a Rocket, connecting our church to support teachers and staff in prayer and encouragement. Libby’s story is a reminder that when we bring our brokenness to God, He can transform it into a blessing for others.
