Summary

Have you found yourself asking God why certain things have happened? Are you walking through an unexpected situation? Do you wonder if you'll ever pursue your God-given dreams? Sometimes life throws us curve balls and we can end up in moments we don't foresee. It can be confusing but God can handle our frustration and difficult questions. In this podcast, Lisa Whittle joins me to talk about: Moments of questioning God's plan Dealing with unexpected problems Resting in God's peace during moments of uncertainty Not being limited by ourselves and other people's opinions Lisa is a writer, speaker and Bible teacher who has been in ministry for nearly 20 years. She's experienced a lot in life, in church and in relationships. Throughout this podcast, Lisa tells me about how she's dealt with failure and overcome disappointment, and how she invited God into all of those moments. She talks about finding peace in the midst of uncertainty and the beauty that can be found in waiting seasons. Lisa also reminds us about the importance of pursuing our God-given dreams and not worrying about other people's opinions. As you listen, I hope you feel empowered and you're reminded that if God is for you, no one can be against you.

0:06.0	I'm your host, Bianca Wattis Oltoff.
0:07.8	And before we dive into this week's episode, I just want to remind you that I birthed a baby.
0:13.2	Okay, okay, not like a real baby.
0:14.5	But when you write books and you publish them, it's literally like you're birthing a child. And Grit Don't Quit was a big-headed baby that I

1:10.6	those things were in play. I love it. I'm so glad.
1:14.2	You've been podcasting longer than I have, but this is the first time that you have been on my podcast.
1:18.2	And I'm also, I'm going to tell on ourselves. Can I tell on ourselves? Let's just keep it real.
1:22.2	Oh, yeah. So we tried to do an interview. Do you remember this?
1:26.0	Yeah. Train wreck.
1:30.0	I mean, so many problems.
