Living in a fallen world, we will inevitably experience hardships and less desirable circumstances. When faced with these challenges, there’s always the temptation to wallow in the sorrow that they bring. The Lord however, in His kindness, provides a defense mechanism for us via the fruit of the Spirit that is joy. This episode is an exhortation to choose joy. Joy in spite of. Joy anyway. Joy anyhow.

In this episode we get into what the Wilderness, on both a personal and Biblical level, looks and feels like for God’s people. We begin talking through Trin’s own Wilderness season, and how the Lord directed, kept, and sustained through it all. Very much like He did for the Israelites. Evidence of His unchaining character and unfailing love.

A lil Q&A vibes this time around. The episode begins with rapid fires and favorites, and ends on a more introspective and ultimately vulnerable level as Trinity sheds light on pieces of her testimony.

How often do you sit with the reality that your weakness is the whole point? That Christ’s power is perfected when we embrace our weakness instead of running from it?

In this debut episode of Graced Up, we’ll walk through 2 Corinthians 12, with emphasis on verse 9, as not only the inspiration for the podcast; but life itself. Prepare to be encouraged to embrace, lean into, and (ultimately as Paul says) boast about weakness, so that Christ’s power can do its thang.
