  • Two Battles, One God: Psalm 124 as My Lifeline

    Neena Spina reflects on two very different seasons—a courtroom fight to protect her son and a later stay in rehab—showing how the faith she practiced in one season became a resource in another.

    She draws on Psalm 124 to explore how leaning into God, seeking godly counsel, and receiving practical support sustained her, and how compassion and coaching can help others in uncertain outcomes.

    This episode offers encouragement and simple, faith-filled steps for staying present, asking for help, and carrying light forward to others even when the outcome is unknown. How to break through thoughts that keep us stuck and get moving with the goals for your day.
