Last week was tragic and heartbreaking. In this episode, I share my thoughts on all of what happened and where I think we, as Christians, go from here.

We all sometimes struggle with seeing how God's working in our lives. It can often seem like He's being silent, like maybe he doesn't even care about what we're going through. We know that's not true, but how can we combat those feelings?

In this episode, I'm talking about what it looks like to truly trust God and surrender to Him, and how I do those things in a real way in my everyday life.

If you've been longing to experience God's faithfulness, these 5 steps can help!

Note: This episode was recorded several months before it was published, so the story I tell from my life is a little outdated, but I believe it has value and can still be an encouragement to you.

Have you ever prayed for something for a really long time, hoped for it, even thought God was promising it to you...only for the door to be slammed in your face or the thing to be yanked away?

That's what we're talking about in this eposide. We dive deep into the pain, frustration, and even anger that can overwhelm us when God answers our prayers with a firm "no."

Believe it or not, God can use these situations to grow our faith and trust in Him and to turn us into the people He's called us to be.

Discover the steps you can take to keep from spiraling or throwing in the towel when things don't go your way.

Oh, and learn all about (probably more than you want to know!) the book publishing industry and my career history and setbacks.

Warning: I get really vulnerable in this episode and might even get a little choked up. If that makes you uncomfortable, you might want to skip the middle. ;)
