Word Wednesday Episode 7: “Hold On—Your Hope is Not in Vain”

Life has a way of testing our patience and our faith. You’ve been praying, believing, and working hard, but it feels like you’re still stuck in the waiting season. Maybe you’re feeling discouraged because the breakthrough you’ve been hoping for hasn’t come. In this episode of Word Wednesday, host Shemetris shares a timely message about holding on when hope feels deferred. Inspired by a personal moment of encouragement—a small donation toward her summer camp—she reminds us that even small signs can be proof that God is still working. With scriptures from Proverbs 13:12 and Romans 15:13 (NIV), we’ll explore how to keep our faith alive when we’re worn out from waiting. Your hope is not in vain, and God sees every step of your journey.

Testimony Thursday-Pressing Forward

EPISODE TITLE: “Pressing Forward | Testimony Thursday” After a two-week pause, I'm back—and not just to share a word, but to share my why. In this deeply personal episode, I open up about the weight I've been carrying, my recent step away from full-time ministry, and the journey of healing after church hurt. But more than that, I’m inviting you into the truth that rest is not a weakness—it’s a weapon. I share a testimony I recently gave in church that changed how I see pain, how I process hurt, and how I press forward. If you've been trying to carry everything, heal from something, or find your footing after a season of loss or burnout—this one is for you. 🎧 Listen in, be encouraged, and remember: You don’t have to stay stuck in dysfunction. Healing is available, and God is still moving in your story. #WordWednesday #KeepWalking #WalkByFaith #TrustGod #FaithMoves #VitalStatistics3 #pressforward #Testimonythursday #overcome
