What do you do when you’re standing in the middle of a war you didn’t choose and a wilderness you don’t understand? In this episode, we enter the honest space of discussing what do when you're feeling stuck and still choosing to stand by faith.

What it looks like to stand by faith in a war zone: - Faith is not denying reality; it’s choosing where you anchor your trust. - Practical ways to “stand” when you feel like collapsing: - Say one honest prayer:…
