Undercurrents of Hope
A podcast where we look for the hidden places of hope in circumstances that sometimes don’t seem too hopeful. We will have a mix of short devotions by Hannah Morrell, and interviews of others who have experienced hope in the middle of a variety of different situations. We hope that it will encourage you, reminding you of the One who always holds practical, every-day hope for us—Jesus.

In this episode, I talk about my namesake Hannah in 1 Samuel 1-2, and how God is the God who hears and cares for us deeply.

In this episode, I talk about Mary starting from Luke 1:26, and going through her life as she chose to cast off shame and live in the impossible that God had brought for her.

Continuing the series about God so often doing things in ways that seem upside down and backwards to me, I talk about Esther and the messiness of her story. I discuss how God was working behind the scenes, bringing rescue even when it looked hopeless.
The first episode of a new series I'm doing called, "The God of the Upside-Down and Backwards." I am looking at stories in the Bible of the messy people God loves and works in the strangest ways in their lives. We begin with this episode about Joseph.
