## Resource

(00:00:18): Do you long for hope amid life struggles and challenges? (00:00:22): Then join author and life coach Tammy Kennington on From Hardship to Hope, (00:00:27): the podcast for Christian women navigating life through a faith-based lens. (00:00:32): If you need biblical support, encouragement, and actionable tips, this show is for you. (00:00:37): Welcome. (00:00:38): I'm your host, Tammy Kennington. (00:00:40): I'm so glad you've joined me for the first episode of season two.

(00:01:31): In fact, (00:01:32): it's something we can learn to navigate through faith, (00:01:35): just like many of the women and men we read about in the Bible and whose lives (00:01:40): we'll discuss throughout this series. (00:01:43): Let's first begin by defining what loneliness is, (00:01:47): understanding some of its characteristics, (00:01:49): and then exploring how we as Christian women can walk through loneliness with hope. (00:01:57): So what is loneliness? (00:01:58): Loneliness. (00:02…
