Maybe You're Not Failing - Maybe God Is Meeting You There | Sarah Walton + Kristen Wetherell (Bonus Episode)

For those who are new here, I occasionally release bonus episodes designed for a specific part of my audience. I have listeners from all kinds of faith backgrounds, and this episode is shared from a Christian perspective. If that’s not quite what you’re looking for today, feel free to explore the other episodes released this week - or join me back here next Tuesday for a conversation you won’t want to miss!

------------------

Parenting rarely unfolds the way we imagine. For some families, the challenges run far deeper than sleepless nights or busy schedules, bringing chronic illness, mental health struggles, financial hardship, unanswered prayers, and seasons of profound uncertainty.

In this episode, Diane sits down with authors Kristen Wetherell and Sarah Walton to discuss their book, Jesus Will Meet You There. Drawing from their own experiences of suffering and motherhood, they share what it looks like to trust God when life doesn't improve the way we hoped it would. Rather than offering quick fixes or easy answers, Kristen and Sarah point listeners toward the compassionate presence of Christ in the middle of exhaustion, fear, grief, and inadequacy.
