This podcast season—a series of five talks titled “People Who Suffer Well”—dives into five characteristics of people who endure difficulties with focus on the Lord.

In the final episode in this series, we discuss cultivating a heart full of Jesus-Joy through my story of restored faith. And I share my study of Mary Magdalene’s Jesus-Joy moment when discovering His resurrection. I encountered a mic-drop moment when I noticed something in the translation of what Mary says to Jesus… (I’m so glad I decided to study Hebrew, y’all.) Listen in to find out what it is!

In this episode, we discuss cultivating a heart full of the Word through Matthew 11:28-30, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Welcome to the kick-off of Season 5 for The Refuge Podcast!

I’ve recently enjoyed my first weekend retreat (March 2024) as a speaker and, with the encouragement of my dear friend Angie and the movement of Holy Spirit, decided to reimagine and record the five messages from that weekend for the podcast. This series of five talks, titled “People Who Suffer Well” dives into five characteristics of people who endure difficulties with focus on the Lord.

In this first episode, we will discuss the importance of cultivating a life saturated in prayer through the story of Hannah from 1 Samuel.
