In our first "In the Meanwhile" podcast of the new year, Page and I review 2018 and look forward to the rest of 2019.

Our title is fitting. We've seen some "drama" as Page likes to say, but so many blessings in disguise through unexpected, or "stranger" things.

Show Notes

In this episode, we play off the title of the popular TV series, "Stranger Things" and talk about those unexpected, or "strange" circumstances the Lord can bring our way and how we can have a biblical perspective during those times.

Some examples of stranger things we discuss are:

  • The loss of a job
  • Closed doors
  • A "No" rather than a "Yes" answer to our prayers
  • Derailed plans

Food for Thought:

  • There is a difference between consistency and security.
  • There is no such thing as security outside our salvation in Jesus Christ.
  • Jesus learned obedience through suffering. What does that mean for us?

Today's episode of "In the Meanwhile" is sponsored by Your Story In His Story, a year-long online course designed to complement your daily Bible reading.

We hope you'll listen in and share your thoughts and your own stories of "stranger things" in the Meanwhile Moments group on Facebook.
