04 - A Walk With Job // When God Is Silent

Heyy! Thanks for tuning in! Today I'm diving deep into the dark trenches of my personal experiences waiting on God in the midst of His seeming silence. I dive into the books of Job and Matthew, and help us work through the pain of waiting through the silence, and being faithful in the waiting. Because we must push through these seasons with the knowledge and hope that God IS working, IS speaking, Is WITH us, no matter what we feel :) Be sure to subscribe on your preferred listening platform so you don't miss out on any new episodes!

What Easter Means For The Christian

Heyy Friend! In this episode, I read an article that I wrote a couple of years ago called, "What Easter Means For The Christ-Follower". In this article i share some honest struggles with fear I was dealing with at the time, and how God gave me help and hope in the midst of them. I hope this episode encourages you in light of this most meaningful holiday! Easter, or Christ's Resurrection, is the FOUNDATION of the Christian faith! And in this episode, we dive deeper into why. xoxo Sarah
