Series Description — “Helpless Not Hopeless”
When life feels like it’s falling apart, hope can seem out of reach. In Helpless Not Hopeless, Phil Strong explores what it really means to hold faith in the middle of struggle. Each episode brings together Scripture, honest reflection, and real-life stories that prove God’s presence is nearest when life feels hardest. You’ll be reminded that even when you feel powerless, you’re never without purpose — and never beyond His reach.
EPISODE 3 — Holding On Even When
Key Verse: Psalm 37:123-24— “The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand.”
Walking with God through uncertainty. This episode explores the tension between faith and confusion — what it means to keep trusting when life doesn’t line up with what we thought God promised.
