About this listen

 People don’t usually wake up one day and decide to stop hoping. Losing hope doesn't happen that way. Hope is most often lost slowly and quietly—through long waiting, repeated disappointment, grief, and emotional exhaustion.In this episode, we talk about why hope erodes, why losing hope does not mean you lack faith, and what is often happening underneath discouragement and numbness.This is a compassionate, Scripture-grounded conversation for anyone who feels tired of expecting, afraid to hope again, or confused about where their hope went. Losing hope is not rebellion.It is often a weary heart trying to survive disappointment.God does not shame tired hearts.He restores them. 📖 KEY SCRIPTURESProverbs 13:12Lamentations 3:18–21Jeremiah 17:5–8Ephesians 2:12Psalm 69:3, 20🌿 IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL HEAR ABOUT:Why hope is usually eroded, not abandonedHow prolonged waiting quietly weakens the heartThe impact of repeated disappointment and lossWhy placing hope in outcomes instead of God makes hope fragileHow identity wounds affect our ability to hopeWhy unprocessed grief often shows up as numbnessHow shame and burnout suffocate hopeWhy losing hope does not mean you’ve failed spiritually🔗 CONNECT & RESOURCESIf you love my content you can support the work here--here are several ways to support the work I do to help women. ☕ Support the podcast:⁠ https://buymeacoffee.com/revealpodcast⁠⁠⁠🌿 Biblical coaching contact me at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://paperbell.me/stephaniemcarter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Blog: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.stephaniemcarter.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ sign up and get the newsletter and free pdf teaching on The Fruit of the Spirit📱 Instagram: ⁠stephaniemcarter.lifecoach⁠Get Dr. Carter's books by clicking the links: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Amazon Author Page: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://amazon.com/author/stephaniemcarter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Listening Prayer Journal⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Amazon Book List⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To get on my email list and get this FREE DEVOTIONAL from me called The Fruit of the Spirit: 9-Day Interactive Devotional when you sign up at my website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.stephaniemcarter.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠*Music is created by Jonathyn M.
