Fear and Faith, Providence Podcast Episode

Listen to the episode here:


Uncertainty, difficulty, and change can make us feel disoriented, topsy-turvy, afraid, and vulnerable, not unlike being in a small boat with waves crashing around it and strong wind blowing. When you’re in a situation like this, how do you find your faith amidst the fear?



For Reflection

  • What’s your relationship with the In Crowd? Do you tend to belong inside the circle or outside? How have you dealt with that?

  • When it comes to other people, how do you welcome and include them?

  • Who in your life, or in the larger context of our society, needs a little extra welcome? What would that look like?

  • How are you called to respond to all of this? Maybe you could take a few moments to talk all of this over with God and see what God has to say.
