Episode Title: Hope in the Waiting | When Hurt Meets Hope – Week 2

Waiting can feel like punishment—like God has forgotten your name. But what if the very place you feel stuck is the place God is shaping you? In this message, Pastor Kim unpacks the story of Joseph and reminds us that waiting seasons aren’t wasted seasons.

Discover how God turns confinement into preparation, how His presence transforms the waiting, and how your delay can lead to destiny. If you’ve ever felt forgotten, stuck, or weary in the wait—this message will speak directly to your heart.

Key Quote: “Joseph thought he was buried in a dungeon, but really, he was planted in the palace’s backyard.”

We all know what it feels like to be dropped—by people we trusted, by circumstances we didn’t see coming, even by the church. And when you’re dropped, it doesn’t just leave a bruise—it can leave you broken.

In week one of When Hurt Meets Hope, Pastor Chris takes us to the story of Mephibosheth (2 Samuel 4 & 9), a man dropped in childhood and left in a place called Lo-Debar—“the place of nothing.” Yet when the King called his name, everything changed.

📖 Key Scriptures:

• “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; He rescues those whose spirits are crushed.” — Psalm 34:18 (NLT)

• “Don’t be afraid… you will eat here with me at the king’s table.” — 2 Samuel 9:7 (NLT)

💬 Quote from the message:
“Your hurt might explain where you are, but it doesn’t define where God is taking you.”

This message is a reminder that even if your hurt wasn’t your fault, hope is still your future. And in Christ, you’ve got a seat at the King’s table.

In Week 3 of our Hello, I Call You series, Pastor Kim unpacks one of the most life-changing truths of the gospel: God calls us His children.

So often we measure our worth by what we do or how we influence others — as servants, salt, or light. But before all of that, our truest identity is found in who we are: God’s beloved sons and daughters.

This message will help you trade performance for belonging, and insecurity for confidence, as you step fully into your identity as a child of God.
