Ep 19. John the Baptist

Hii everyone! Welcome back to Hope Rising! John the Baptist’s life wasn’t about being known, it was about making Jesus known. In a world that constantly pushes us to chase attention and validation, this episode brings you back to what actually matters. If you’ve ever struggled with comparison, purpose, or feeling unseen, this message will challenge and encourage you. I love you, but God loves you even more.

Ep 18. Joseph (Son of Jacob)

Hii everyone!! Welcome back to Hope Rising! Joseph’s story is for anyone in a season that doesn’t make sense yet. Betrayed by his own family, falsely accused, forgotten in prison, his life looked completely off track. But behind the scenes, God was still working. This episode is about trusting God in the middle, when you feel stuck, overlooked, or like you’re falling behind. It’s a reminder that delay is not denial, your current situation does not define your identity, and nothing you’ve walked through is wasted. I love you, but God loves you more.

Ep 17. Jonah

Hii everyone! Welcome back to Hope Rising! In this episode of Hope Rising, we dive into the story of Jonah and what it really means to be aligned with God’s heart. Sometimes we can know God and still struggle with our perspective without even realizing it. This conversation is all about how the way we see our lives shapes how we respond, trust, and love others. It’s an honest look at resistance, surrender, and learning to see things the way God does. If you’ve been feeling stuck, discouraged, or unsure of what God is doing, this episode will remind you that a simple shift in perspective can change everything. Hope is still rising, and God is not finished with your story.

Ep 16. Abraham

Hii everyone! Welcome back to Hope Rising! In this episode of Hope Rising, we walk through the life of Abraham and what it really means to live by faith. His story is not one of perfect trust, but of waiting, questioning, missteps, and learning to surrender control to God. From the promise that didn’t match his reality, to the covenant God made, to the moments he tried to take things into his own hands, Abraham’s journey shows us that faith is not about having all the answers. It is about continuing to trust God anyway. If you’re in a season of waiting or wondering where God is, this episode is a reminder that He is still working, still faithful, and still writing your story. I love you, but God loves you even more

Ep 15. Thomas: Resurrection Day

Hii everyone! Welcome back to Hope RIsing! Happy Resurrection Day!! This Easter, we are not just celebrating that Jesus is alive. We are stepping into the tension between hearing the resurrection story and truly believing it. In this episode, we look at Thomas in a different way. Not just as someone who doubted, but as someone who loved deeply, lost deeply, and wrestled honestly with what he did not understand. His story shows us that doubt is not a failure of faith. Sometimes it is the place where real faith begins. So what do you do when what you believed about God feels like it fell apart? What happens when disappointment makes it hard to trust again? Thomas did not hide his questions, and Jesus did not turn away from them. Instead, He met Thomas right in the middle of his uncertainty. And that moment changed everything. This episode is an invitation to stop pretending, to bring your real thoughts and questions to God, and to discover that He is not afraid of them. Because the resurrection becomes real not just when you hear about it, but when you experience it for yourself. If you feel unsure, if you feel behind, if you are still figuring it out, you are not alone. You might be closer than you think. Hope is not just rising this Easter. It is coming back for you.
