There’s a strange thing about strength.
You rarely feel it before you need it.
Most of the time, strength shows up after something difficult happens—a responsibility, a challenge, or a moment you didn’t see coming. In those moments, it’s easy to wonder:
Do I even have what it takes?
But sometimes the step you’re afraid to take is the exact place where you discover strength you didn’t know you had.
In today’s episode of The Lifeline Morning Show, Steven explores the powerful promise found in Isaiah 40:31 and what it means when your faith feels tired but not gone.
Through personal stories, encouragement for students, and practical wisdom for everyday life, this episode reminds listeners that God doesn’t only give strength to people who already feel strong—He renews strength for those who keep trusting Him.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
• A personal story about preaching his grandmother’s funeral and discovering strength in a moment of deep grief
• Encouragement for students facing intimidating moments at school
• A powerful reminder that faith grows while you move forward, not while you wait to feel ready
• The surprising question: “Who are you uninterrupted?”
• Three simple ways to strengthen your faith when it feels tired
Faith doesn’t wait until you feel strong.Faith takes the next step.
