We all have had seasons where God seems silent. They can be very challenging to navigate when we want so much to remain faithful, but it doesn't seem like we are getting any encouragement from God. I've had more days like this than I could have ever imagined over the last six months since my diagnosis, so I felt like I could speak to this and hopefully bring encouragement to your hearts.   Resources mentioned in this episode:

Most of us have at least some fear of death. Our culture is obsessed with it but without a remedy. However, it's a completely different story for Believers!

Pastor Wes reminded me recently that Jesus has authority over sin and death and death is our servant because we belong to Jesus. One of my listeners heard me talk about this and asked if I would have Wes on the podcast to dive deeper into this topic....

​When stressed, fearful, or anxious, we can feel claustrophobic, like we are in a small, constricted space. God tells us in His Word that HE moves us to a large, spacious place where we can breathe and stand firm against the enemy.  Today I'm sharing more of my journey and the ways that God has met me in the unknown.

Christmas isn’t that far away and what could be better than reading great books to our kids that reveal God’s faithfulness in sending Jesus? This isn't another Advent book (although we love those), it's one that can be read in 2 weeks(allows for a more flexible reading schedule in the midst of a busy season) and showcases the promises that God fulfilled in Jesus. What a great way to keep Jesus as the focal point of the season!
