About this listen

 In this special solo episode of No Matter What, Hanna steps into the Advent season with an honest, hope-filled reflection on waiting, prayer, and trusting God when answers feel delayed. Drawing from Luke 1 and the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, Hanna explores what it means to believe God hears us—even when His response doesn’t come how or when we expect. With warmth, Scripture, and personal insight from her book Everyday Spiritual Habits, Hanna reframes prayer not as persistence that wears God down, but as dependence that draws us closer to His presence. She invites listeners to consider how waiting itself becomes a tool God uses to deepen faith, cultivate trust, and anchor us in Him. If you’re weary from unanswered prayers, discouraged by long seasons of waiting, or wondering whether God truly hears you—this episode offers reassurance, clarity, and gentle encouragement rooted in the character of a faithful God.
