The Hope Podcast with Lina Abujamra

I am confident because He speaks [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #1]

I’m so excited to welcome you back to a new podcast series through the book of Hebrews I called The Confidence Series: How to fully trust God when I don’t see the way.
How do we navigate times of adversity victoriously? What do we need to stand unshaken in a rapidly changing culture? How do we replace our insecurities with immovable faith? How do we overcome disappointments and experience stability in the most unpredictable of times?
The author of Hebrews knows the answer—CONFIDENCE in God. Writing to a people living in turbulent times, challenged to reconcile the victorious Christian life with the trials they were facing and tempted to abandon their faith completely, the author of Hebrews urges believers to remain confident because of the things they know to be true about God.
I believe that now, more than ever, we need to become more God-confident and to remain steadfast in our resolve to follow Christ.

Unshaken faith when I am thirsty for more [ UNSHAKEN 30]

Have you ever felt restless or dissatisfied, despite having success, possessions, or even fulfilling relationships?
God has placed within each of us a holy discontent, a stirring, a desire for something more. It's a longing that cannot be satisfied by anything else but a deep and intimate relationship with Jesus Christ.
In today’s podcast we’ll look at Revelation 22 and delve into God’s invitation to us, the blessings that are still to come to those who seek Him, as well as learn how to cultivate a desire for more of God.
Hey, we’ll take a break from podcasting for the rest of August, but I can’t wait to share what’s next on the Hope Podcast!
Until then, may your thirst be quenched by the living water that is Jesus Christ.

Unshaken when my faith seems pointless [UNSHAKEN 29]

Life often presents us with trials, doubts, and circumstances that challenge the very core of our beliefs. In these moments, it's natural to question if our faith truly holds any weight.
The lineup of men and women from Hebrews 11 certainly understand the struggle in our heart, and the way they responded to adversity, unfairness, confusion, or God’s silence, serves as a timeless guide for us during our most trying times.
So, grab your headphones, open your heart, and listen to today’s podcast because I believe your doubt will meet purpose and your uncertainty will meet hope.

Unshaken faith when I feel like a failure [UNSHAKEN 28]

What’s your relationship with failure like? Where do you see yourself as a failure and how have you responded to that failure?
John 21 is one of my favorite stories in the Bible. Here we encounter how Jesus responded to Peter after what was probably his biggest failure yet – the denial of Jesus before His crucifixion.
Instead of scolding him, Jesus loves him and points him to his purpose and calling.  
I believe today’s podcast will bring you hope and remind you that your failure is not the end of your story, but perhaps the pathway for future ministry.

Unshaken faith when it feels like I have little to be thankful for [UNSHAKEN 27]

How has your year been so far?
Maybe you’ve gone through some circumstances that have left you questioning and confused. Maybe not a lot has turned out as anticipated and the losses and tensions you have felt, have left you discouraged. Maybe you might find it difficult to be grateful this time of the year. Trust me, I understand.
But I believe this podcast will open our eyes to see that we can trust God’s goodness and faithfulness even in the darkest of times; that we can stand strong no matter what, full of gratitude, even when things don’t go our way (Acts 6–7).
Take a listen and share it with someone in need of encouragement.

Unshaken faith when God doesn’t show up on time [UNSHAKEN 26]

Is there an area in your life where you feel like you’ve been waiting on God forever – perhaps even to where His delays have looked like denial?
This teaching from John 11 – the raising of Lazarus – will help you understand that God is at work in the delays of our lives, fulfilling His greater purposes in what looks like impossible circumstances.
Don’t miss this podcast! I believe your faith will grow stronger as you encounter a God who can work out the resurrection you’re praying for in your life.

Unshaken faith when God’s ways offend me [UNSHAKEN 25]

Have you ever placed your trust in God, hoping for a positive outcome, only to feel let down?
In Matthew 11, John the Baptist’s story looked like it ended badly from a human perspective. Here was an individual whom Jesus considered to be the greatest among all men (Mat. 11:11) stuck in prison, hoping to be delivered, only to be beheaded instead.
From the viewpoint of God, John's final outcome was intricately designed with divine purpose, his life was profoundly meaningful, and his calling was successfully carried out.
We too can sometimes misunderstand God’s ways and methods, but they are always for our good and for His glory. If you feel disappointed, weary, or perplexed, today’s podcast will encourage you to trust God’s purposes even when His ways feel hurtful or confusing.
