What do you do when following Jesus feels hard?
📖 “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.” — John 6:68b
Today’s Episode:
Natalie and Vera talk honestly about the seasons when following Jesus feels difficult.
Sometimes life does not turn out the way we hoped. Sometimes the world feels completely upside down. Sometimes believing what Christians believe makes us feel like the weirdest person in the room. And sometimes doubts or unanswered questions leave us wondering what God is doing.
This Month’s Memory Verse:
“Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.”
— John 6:68b

"Lord Jesus, I don’t always get to know what you’re doing, in fact I maybe mostly don’t know what you’re doing."
Today's Episode: Do you ever feel confused or lost or frustrated or even angry with God? In today's prayer episode, we are confessing those feelings to God, asking him to help us trust him, and thanking him for how he loves us and works all things for good...even the things we just don't understand.

What do you do when Jesus says something hard?

📖 “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.”
— John 6:68b

Today’s Episode:
Natalie helps us see three ways we respond when the real Jesus makes us uncomfortable: we can reject him, try to change him, or believe him.
This episode is a call to faithful honesty. We may not understand everything Jesus says or does. We may feel confused, unsettled, or uncomfortable. But with Peter, we can still say, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.”

What do you do when you know Jesus is with you, but you don’t feel it?
📖 “And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” — Matthew 28:20b
Today’s Episode:
Natalie talks with counselor and author Nicole Zasowski about the safety of Jesus’s presence.
Nicole explains that emotional pain often touches either our identity or our sense of safety. And while Scripture speaks directly to both, safety can feel especially complicated because life in this world is not always safe. But Jesus gives us a promise we can cling to: we are never alone.

“And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
