In this episode, Kathy opens her heart about what it really means to trust God when our prayers aren’t answered the way we hoped. We often hear that whatever we ask for will be given—but what happens when we pray for healing, and the diagnosis still comes back as cancer? Kathy shares her own experience of praying, waiting, and learning to rest in God’s goodness even when the outcome wasn’t what she wanted.

This is an honest conversation about faith that isn’t based on results, but on relationship. God still hears. He still heals. But even when He doesn’t heal in the way we asked, His love never fails.

If you’re walking through disappointment or waiting for a miracle, this episode will remind you that God is still faithful, even in the “no.”

Do you ever catch yourself overthinking everything? You’re not alone. I truly believe God designed women with this tendency—to protect, prepare, and cover all the bases. But when that design spills into worry and endless “what ifs,” it can steal our peace and keep us from moving forward in grace.In this episode of The Redeemed Mess, we’ll talk about why overthinking comes so naturally, how to recognize when it crosses into fear, and practical ways to surrender it to God. Together, we’ll learn how to shift from “what if” thinking to “even if” faith, and discover the peace Jesus promises when we lay it all before Him.

Have you ever been discouraged by another believer’s criticism? In this episode, I share a story about being told an author I enjoy wasn’t a “good Christian.” That moment reminded me how quick we can be to judge—and how harmful that can be, especially for new believers.I’ll talk about my own early walk with Christ, how the Holy Spirit taught me discernment over time, and a moment when a mature Christian’s encouragement kept me from giving up. The lesson? Criticism rarely draws people closer to Jesus, but grace and patience often do.

When tragedy strikes, faith can feel fragile. Some may even feel like turning their back on God if He doesn’t answer prayers the way they hoped. In this episode of The Redeemed Mess, I share my heart about trusting God’s sovereignty, even in suffering. He is the only source of supernatural strength and eternal hope.

In this episode of The Redeemed Mess, I share about a recent conversation with someone who believes we are our own god and that we can manifest our reality. It would be easy to back away, but that’s not what Jesus calls us to do. People who believe differently need us to stay in relationship with them, not alienate them. Join me as we talk about why it’s so important to listen with grace, stand firm in truth, and love like Jesus—even when worldviews collide.

I used to get offended so easily—it would send me straight into defense mode. But watching my husband, who rarely takes things personally (even when people push back on his work ideas), has been teaching me a better way. The Bible calls it “overlooking an offense” (Proverbs 19:11), and Jesus modeled it perfectly. Here’s what I’m learning about letting go, trusting God with my reputation, and choosing peace over pride.

This heartfelt reflection invites listeners to pause, pray, and remember that God’s will is always better than our own.
