Hey Sis! 🎙️

Today’s episode is a reminder that even in the middle seasons of life—the hardest parts where we’re tested, stretched, and tempted to give up—God is with us and strengthening us. We begin our study of 2 Corinthians 4:16–18, where Paul reminds us not to lose heart because our inward renewal far outweighs our outward struggles. This truth anchors us as we dive into Christine Caine’s devotional You’re Not Finished Yet with a focus on endurance for “the middle.”

Together, we’ll reflect on how the stories of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, the reminder in Hebrews 10 about patient endurance, and Isaiah 40’s promise of renewed strength all point us to this truth: the middle may be the most challenging part of the journey, but it’s also where God builds in us the strength to finish well. If you’ve been feeling weary, worn, or ready to quit, this episode will encourage you to keep running your race with faith, endurance, and confidence that you don’t walk the middle alone.
