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.

Becky Keife: The Most Important Thing I Learned from My 84-year-old Neighbor
"We can let life’s hurdles and hardships be like arrows pointing us deeper to the heart of Jesus.
Imagine Jesus leaning in close and saying,
Yes, in all things my Father works for the good of those who love Him. (Romans 8:28)
Yes, daughters, do not grow weary or lose heart. I endured the cross so you can endure whatever you face. (Hebrews 12:1-3)
Yes, don’t give up! In me you will never be overcome or crushed. Affliction and persecution will come but in Me you’ll find unending joy and unconditional love. (2 Corinthians 4:7-18)
Jesus isn’t advocating for us to shove hard things under the rug or slap on a mask of false positivity. No, He’s offering us the truth:
When we rely on God all things really are possible – and our capacity for resiliency is just one example.
We can allow disappointment and bitterness to choke out our zest for life and trust in God. Or we can let life’s hurdles and hardships be like arrows pointing us deeper to the heart of Jesus."
