Finding Hope in Hard Seasons | Kirby Kelly (Bonus Episode)

Today’s guest invites us to consider this question: What if God is not absent in your hardest seasons - but actively at work, stitching together something beautiful in the middle of it? In this conversation, Diane sits down with author Kirby Kelly to talk about her new book, The Fabric of Hope, and what it looks like to trust God in the middle of life’s hardest seasons. We talk about what it looks like to move from anticipating trauma and living in anxiety to casting our burdens onto Christ, supported by both faith and counseling.
