Pamela Henkelman had a successful speaking career when she decided to start writing. Her writing journey was one of many lessons over the years. At first, she thought she wanted to write about intimacy with God and our identity in Christ, but then she became an empty nester, and her passions changed. Often, when the Lord pivots our focus, our writing focus needs to pivot with it. Join us for this fun conversation as Pamela will share how we can gain the courage to step into God's calling.

Ep. 58: Divine Disappointments: Growing in Faith Through Seasons of Frustration with Cara Blondo

How do you respond when a project doesn’t go as planned, a rejection email lands in your inbox (yet again), or you pour your heart and soul into a blog post or social media caption, and all you get in return is crickets?

 Frustration and disappointment are par for the course, not just for Christians, but for everyone interested in making an impact in the creative world. However, even though disappointments are to be expected, they can feel magnified when we experience them in the arena of our craft, dreams, and passions.

 In this week’s episode, we will consider another way to respond to the next inevitable disappointment we’ll experience. Rather than grow in frustration, we can grow in faith when we look at our disappointments through the lens of God’s Word and his ways.

 If your heart could use tender encouragement this season, this episode is for you. God knows your heart, and he holds it in his hands. He will meet you in your disappointment and show you His divine purpose.
