Let’s be real—no one volunteers for the hard place. But what if the very thing you’re trying to escape is the exact space God is using to build you?
In this soul-stirring episode, Minister Demetria Lea gets honest about the places we avoid—dry seasons, delays, silent assignments, hidden obedience—and reveals how God does His best construction in the places we didn’t choose. From Nathan the prophet quietly confronting kings, to Barzillai showing up for a broken leader behind the scenes, we explore the untold strength that’s formed when no one’s clapping and everything feels uncertain. If you’ve ever asked, “God, why here? Why now?”—this one is for you. Your valley is not a void. It’s a divine construction zone.
