Conversations #3: When the Story Doesn’t Go as Planned


Listen Later

Some desires are holy and still go unanswered on our timeline. Kimberly and Elizabeth continue the conversations series by elaborating on practical ideas that flow from discussing God's Sovereignty and His Provision. They sit down for an unfiltered conversation about Christian singleness, jealousy, and the quiet grief of watching other people step into marriage and kids while you’re still waiting, serving, and trying to trust God’s provision.

The heart of the conversation is hope with substance: we cannot define ourselves by relationship status, whether single or married, because Jesus is the only safe foundation for identity. We explore what real church community can look like for singles, the childless, the divorced, and anyone who feels marginalized, plus simple ways to practice kindness and dignity in everyday moments that can otherwise wound.

If this resonates, share it with a friend who needs language for their story, subscribe for more conversations on identity and belonging, and leave a review so others can find the show. What part of your story still needs safe community?
