UnPerfect - Experience God's Presence and Purpose in the midst of Difficult Circumstances
Hey, Sister. Are you frustrated that life hasn’t turned out the way you planned? Do you wonder if abundant life is possible on this side of eternity? I’ve been where you are, and girl, do I have some hope to share with you! Welcome to UnPerfect. I’m Shelly Snead, and each Tuesday I bring you stories from my real life - the hilarious AND the hard - and hope-giving truth from the Bible. I am honest about my jacked-upness while still confident in my Jesus. We'll chat about practical ways to experience God's presence and purpose in our difficult circumstances and brokenness. On Fridays, listen in as I chat with faith-filled guests - "Fridays With Friends." Join us on a journey of authentic faith in the midst of "hard" with plenty of laughter on the side. Together, let’s find glimpses of God’s glory in the now and the not-yet.

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:
