The (in)courage Podcast
Welcome to the (in)courage podcast! We are all different ages, in different life stages, and we come from different cultures and churches, but our common thread is the hope of Jesus. Each weekday we meet you right where you are as one of our writers shares what’s going on in her everyday life and how God’s right in the middle of it all. We bring our joys and struggles equally so that you can feel less alone, and be empowered by the hope Jesus gives. We hope you’ll bring us along with you on your morning walks, driving to the grocery store, waiting in the preschool pickup line, alone in your kitchen, or as you wind down for the evening. Wherever you join us, you’re welcome here, and we’re honored to be a part of your day.

Kristen Strong: When You're Doing the Work of Two People in a Friendship
"I can trust God to work toward my good. When I'm getting a lukewarm response from someone after extending the hand of friendship, I've found freedom in saying to myself, "Ya know, Kristen, she's just not able to reciprocate now. Maybe she won't be ever. Either way, you're gonna be fine." And then I decide to take the pressure off myself (and her!) and just let her be.
With a willingness to keep my heart open to people, time and experience have taught me that while I can't do the work of two people in a friendship, I can trust God to work toward my good in leading me to those who'll welcome my efforts and reciprocate with their own."
