214 – When Faith Feels Distant and Parenting Feels Heavy: Can Journaling Help You Hear God? (with Jenny Fulford)


Listen Later

Are you in a season that feels more like survival than hope?

What if healing doesn’t look like getting through it but learning to meet God in it? 🌿

Hearing God’s voice isn’t always easy, especially when life feels heavy and faith feels quiet. 💔

Hi Neighbor,

In this heartfelt conversation, Jenny Fulford shares how God met her in a season of silence and loss, and how journaling became the tool that helped her listen again. ✍️

Out of that quiet, Laurent Paper Company was born — a faith-based stationery brand designed to help others slow down, notice God’s presence, and respond with hope.

Jenny’s story reminds us that healing doesn’t happen overnight. It takes time, honesty, and the courage to show up with what’s real. 💛

Through her experience, she offers a gentle way forward for anyone who’s ever wondered why their faith doesn’t feel as strong as it once did.

Together, we talk about:

✨ The power of journaling as a spiritual practice
🌤️ How to make space to hear God’s voice in everyday life
🌱 Why our struggles often become the soil where faith grows

And we find comfort in the promise of Isaiah 40:28–31 — “that those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength and rise again.” 🦅

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right and still can’t hear God, this episode will remind you that He’s not distant. He’s speaking right where you are. 🙏

Anchors of hope and healing are waiting.

Your Neighbor,

Tim 💙

P.S. If you’ve ever felt lost trying to connect Scripture with the realities of adoption trauma, I’d love to walk alongside you. I’m opening a few free spots for one-on-one conversations where we can talk through practical tools and Biblical encouragement for your journey.

👉 Send me an email at [email protected] to grab your spot. I’d be honored to walk with you. 💙

If you haven’t joined our private community, consider this an invitation. It’s a safe space to share your struggles and triumphs with fellow adoptive parents who truly understand what you're going through.
