Rebounding Faith

The book of Psalms is not Fast Food! It is meant to come back to again and again, slowly digest and meditate on them. This book is considered to be the most widely read and highly treasured of all the books in the Old Testament. In fact, this book is the one Jesus quoted from the most.

Faith. Hope. Waiting. Patience. Pain. Resilience. When experiencing a lengthy trial, this can describe the cycle we all walk through. In 1 Samuel chapter one, we learn about Hannah's trial: Struggling with infertility for years.  

The Bible refers to this difficult time (intensity meets long duration) as "Bitterness of Soul" (1 Samuel 1:10). It's the time that God is working in our lives to bring about a greater result. While we ca...

Have you ever felt that your faith was in a rut?  Where you seem to be fairly complacent in your faith and coasting? We have all had times where our faith seems to be on "autopilot" (i.e. we pray the same prayers, read the same verses, listen to the same songs, etc). One key word is THE SAME.

The Bible is very clear when it comes to complacency and luke warm faith (Revelation 3:16). There is d...

We are back NEXT WEEK with a New Episode (August 3rd)!
There is purpose in the struggle -- and in the wrestling match. This episode received much feedback related to our struggles and to some degree God's Will. At times when we are struggling, it's hard to see how God is shaping and molding us through the Wrestling Match. 

In this episode, Catherine, Gina and Kristen explore Jacob's journey to becoming Israel through an all night,...

New Episode will be back August 3rd! This week, we are featuring a favorite past episode of Catherine's where we dive deep into choosing faith over feeling.

"Ive always been fascinated with the concept of walking by faith and not by sight -- fighting the temptation to only rely on what we can see. God's presence and power can appear invisible when our circumstances seem overwhelming, but we must push back and fight the temptation ...

New Episode will be back August 3rd! Don't miss this gem from last year - this week is Kristen's pick:

"I chose this episode because we talk about how desperate we can feel when times are tough.  It's just when we think things couldn’t get any more challenging… boom, something else happens. We compare it to being in the ocean and feeling like you’re drowning as you are smacked by yet another wave. It’s i...

This week we are featuring a favorite past episode of Gina's. One simple word: Comparisons. 

Comparison can be the thief of all joy - so why do we do it? If you can identify with the struggle of not feeling good enough or worthy, if comparing yourself and not measuring up is a theme for you or someone you know - this episode will resonate with you. It's at these times, we have to remind ourselves that we are the daugh...

In this episode Catherine, Gina and Kristen explore three little words that reveal our struggles/ opposition, our choice of HOW to respond and the result of God's loving work THROUGH these trials. The struggle is real but so is our response and God's Hand throughout. We can grow thru adversity and God can work powerfully. Join us as we break it down and look at each step in detail.  

Note: This episode was taped in July 2021 

It has been said that surrender is a journey from the outer turmoil to the inner peace. The peace we hold in our hearts is probably one of the most difficult parts of our faith.

In order to obtain the peace that Jesus promises, we must first let go of our own will and surrender to His. John 14:27 says , "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do ...

Do you have faith that God will answer you?  Is your heart ready to take the next step that God is calling you to take?

Today, we are re-releasing one of our most popular episodes to date. Join Catherine, Gina and Kristen as they explore the role courage and "faith in action" play in our spiritual walk. Faith is a journey and sometimes the first step is the hardest... and the most rewarding. Where will you find your "Red Umbrella" ...

Inward change leads to outward action -- but it all starts in the heart mixed with a bit of curiosity and determination. A small seed planted there that desires peace, joy, and to experience the promises of God first hand.

The story of Zacchaeus the Tax Collector (Luke 19:1-10)  illustrates when curiosity meets determination how your life can be changed in a powerful way. He climbed a Sycamore tree so he could just see Jesus passin...

Have you ever walked along a narrow path on the side of a mountain or crossed a bridge with danger on both sides? When you put your trust in God, you are walking "The Narrow Path" that leads to life, and life more abundant.

Matthew 7:13-14 states "Broad is the road that leads to destruction, but small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life". In our lives, we can be tempted to veer off the path and be lured over to the w...

Are you carrying something that is hard to let go? An offense committed that is robbing you of your peace?

Whether it is releasing yourself or another from a transgression, healing and peace are found in forgiveness. The Bible refers to forgiveness a total of 121 times in both the old and new testament -- which speaks to its importance. But Why is it so important? What are the benefits of forgivene...

Do you ever feel like you are in a tough spot of which no foreseeable good can come from it?  When we are in this "place", there are two phrases that come to mind: "What was meant for evil, God will use for good" or another popular worldly expression is "Everything's Coming Up Roses". What do these really mean and how do they apply to our faith?

One k...
