Rebounding Faith

Marriage is a journey that is eternal, a moment to moment opportunity to love and be loved to the best of your ability:

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails.... " - 1 Corinthians 13:4 - 8a (NIV)

But what happens when our marriage is struggling? When we as individuals are struggling? When our relationship is NOT 50/50? Join Catherine, Gina and Kristen for this meaningful conversation on how God intended marriage to be and when it gets difficult..... for better and for worse.

The book of Psalms is not Fast Food! It is meant to come back to again and again, slowly digest and meditate on them. This book is considered to be the most widely read and highly treasured of all the books in the Old Testament. In fact, this book is the one Jesus quoted from the most.

The book of Psalms are a gift to us! It gives us great insight into God's nature as well as shows how He responds in the moment, and over time, to our prayers, our pain and our joy. The Psalms have a special ability to put words to our emotions and language to our experiences. They help us to both process how we are feeling and how to bring it to God. Powerful book!! So how do we "decode" the Psalms to better understand them? Understand why they speak to us so powerfully? Join Catherine as she speaks with J.C. Schroeder (fellow Podcaster and expert on the Psalms) about the poetry and power of the book of Psalms and ways we can use them in our everyday lives.

Faith. Hope. Waiting. Patience. Pain. Resilience. When experiencing a lengthy trial, this can describe the cycle we all walk through. In 1 Samuel chapter one, we learn about Hannah's trial: Struggling with infertility for years.  

The Bible refers to this difficult time (intensity meets long duration) as "Bitterness of Soul" (1 Samuel 1:10). It's the time that God is working in our lives to bring about a greater result. While we cannot predict what the outcome will be, we aspire to walk through this "Bitterness of Soul" with our eyes on God.  This is how the story of Hannah, the mother of the prophet Samuel begins, but what makes her story admirable is her response to the pain and the prophetic joy that can occur when you open your soul to God. Join Catherine and Kristen as they parallel this powerful Bible story to Kristen's own story of infertility and struggle (aka Hannah's Sister).

Have you ever felt that your faith was in a rut?  Where you seem to be fairly complacent in your faith and coasting? We have all had times where our faith seems to be on "autopilot" (i.e. we pray the same prayers, read the same verses, listen to the same songs, etc). One key word is THE SAME.

The Bible is very clear when it comes to complacency and luke warm faith (Revelation 3:16). There is definitely a place for ritual and routine in our faith walk, but it is important for us to continue to mature in our faith.

God's desire is for us to continue to expand our faith -- and be an active participant. If we keep going to God, we keep growing in God. Join Catherine, Gina and Kristen as they examine 3 ways to rescue our faith from the autopilot cycle.

We are back NEXT WEEK with a New Episode (August 3rd)! There is purpose in the struggle -- and in the wrestling match. This episode received much feedback related to our struggles and to some degree God's Will. At times when we are struggling, it's hard to see how God is shaping and molding us through the Wrestling Match.  In this episode, Catherine, Gina and Kristen explore Jacob's journey to becoming Israel through an all night, life changing wrestling match with God.  He aims to refine our character and can even use our brokenness to accomplish His purposes. Join us for a fascinating conversation about transition, growth and becoming who God desires us to be -- all through a wrestling match.  It would mean the world to us if you would share this podcast with a friend as well as rate and review our show.

New Episode will be back August 3rd! This week, we are featuring a favorite past episode of Catherine's where we dive deep into choosing faith over feeling. "Ive always been fascinated with the concept of walking by faith and not by sight -- fighting the temptation to only rely on what we can see. God's presence and power can appear invisible when our circumstances seem overwhelming, but we must push back and fight the temptation to walk only by sight (or what's visible). I selected this episode because I love the idea of not just believing in GOD but believing GOD that He WILL get us to the other side (Mark 5:1 NLV). I love the reminder in hard times that He is faithful -- and that we need to also make the choice to be faithful (aka The Faith Choice)."  It would mean the world to us if you would share this podcast with a friend as well as rate and review our show.

New Episode will be back August 3rd! Don't miss this gem from last year - this week is Kristen's pick:

"I chose this episode because we talk about how desperate we can feel when times are tough.  It's just when we think things couldn’t get any more challenging… boom, something else happens. We compare it to being in the ocean and feeling like you’re drowning as you are smacked by yet another wave. It’s in these moments of desperation when God can do some of his best work, he meets us where we are 'when deep calls out to deep' and provides the strength we need to keep swimming. I think this is a very relatable topic for those times when we feel like we  can’t catch a break." -- Kristen

Join us as we explore Psalm 42:7 and discuss what it looks like when the depth of our emotional pain is matched with the depth of God's character, ability to comfort and heal It's a powerful and personal discussion that brings hope and encouragement.

This week we are featuring a favorite past episode of Gina's. One simple word: Comparisons. 

Comparison can be the thief of all joy - so why do we do it? If you can identify with the struggle of not feeling good enough or worthy, if comparing yourself and not measuring up is a theme for you or someone you know - this episode will resonate with you. It's at these times, we have to remind ourselves that we are the daughter of God, loved and created uniquely with purpose.

Catherine, Gina and Kristen look at the dangers of comparing and contrasting ourselves with others and how our individual gifts play an important part in the Body of Christ.  Let's say enough to the word "enough" and to the phrase "If I could only...."  Join us!

In this episode Catherine, Gina and Kristen explore three little words that reveal our struggles/ opposition, our choice of HOW to respond and the result of God's loving work THROUGH these trials. The struggle is real but so is our response and God's Hand throughout. We can grow thru adversity and God can work powerfully. Join us as we break it down and look at each step in detail.   Note: This episode was taped in July 2021

It has been said that surrender is a journey from the outer turmoil to the inner peace. The peace we hold in our hearts is probably one of the most difficult parts of our faith. In order to obtain the peace that Jesus promises, we must first let go of our own will and surrender to His. John 14:27 says , "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." There is a process to walking in peace; it starts with accepting God's Will, then surrendering to His will and finally trusting that God has a purpose in your pain. Finding and walking on that "Blessable Path"!

Join Catherine, Gina and Kristen as they dig deep into one of Faith's most difficult questions: How do we obtain and sustain peace? Is there such a thing as a "Piece of Peace"?

Episode Notes: In this episode, we refer to the below topic: The Old Hymn: "It is Well With My Soul".
