Send me a text here! I’d love to hear from you.

I am no stranger to stressing over the "what ifs" of life. But I've found five fear-starving gifts presented in Psalm 91 to be an absolute balm to my fearful, worried soul! In episode #41, we talked about the first one - God's presence. Today, we explore the next two extraordinary gifts God gives us to combat the natural inclinations of our faithless flesh. Whether you fear what could happen five years from now or five minutes from now, I think you'll find hope in today's episode!

In Episode #42 you'll find out:

  • Some fun facts - a few phobias you may not know about and a word in Kinyarwandan we mistranslated from our Rwandan kids for years (just another addition to our parenting fails)
  • What's in your "wallet" when it comes to fleeing fear
  • Encouragement for times when prayer seems futile
  • What truly knowing God's name has to do with drop-kicking fear
  • The first person in Scripture to give God a name - and how you can, too
  • Some questions to consider concerning your specific fears
  • How to make a "Goliath" list, then replace it with a "God's-Got-This" list

Some scriptures mentioned in this episode:

A special resource mentioned in today's episode for parents of high schoolers facing fears concerning their child's graduation or adult children reentering the home: Sending Your Senior. Check out this three-episode podcast series by Biltmore Church. (Spoiler alert: You'll hear a few more "unperfect" parenting stories by me and my hubs.)
