ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What do you do when you’ve prayed, believed… and nothing changes? When the healing doesn’t come, and the pain doesn’t go away? When God feels silent in the place you need Him most.
In this conversation, we sit down with Brenna Blain, a contemporary theologian, best-selling author, and teacher, to talk about the kind of suffering that doesn’t make sense—and the kind of faith that has to be rebuilt in the middle of it. Brenna vulnerably shares her story of abuse, depression, same-sex attraction, and wrestling with a God who didn’t show up the way she thought He would.
We talk about the tension so many of us carry but don’t always say out loud: How do you trust God when He doesn’t fix it? What does it look like to follow Jesus when your reality doesn’t match what you’ve been taught in church? And is it possible that God’s presence in our pain matters more than the outcome we’re praying for?
This episode isn’t about easy answers. It’s about honest faith, wrestling with God, and learning how to invite Him into the places we’d rather hide.
