E135: When God Uses Unhappiness

*Grab your FREE Heart Scan printable at myhappyvault.com/heartscan, and listen in as we close this series with hope.

We’re wrapping up our Happiness & Unhappiness- Finding Jesus In The 50/50 series by stepping into the part we tend to avoid—how God uses unhappiness to shape us. If you’ve ever wondered why certain seasons feel so heavy or why your emotions seem “off,” this episode will help you see those moments through a completely different lens.

We’re opening Hebrews to see how God formed Jesus through suffering—yes, Jesus—and why that matters for your own formation. I’ll walk you through seven surprising ways God grows you through disappointment, resistance, and grief… and how the Heart Scan can help you meet Him right in the middle of it all.

If you’re carrying something hard right now, this conversation will help you breathe again and remember: unhappiness isn’t a failure. It’s often the doorway to deeper intimacy with Christ.
