The Hope Podcast with Lina Abujamra

I recently sat down with pastor Jeff Bucknam from Harvest Bible Chapel, and I shared parts of my story I’ve never shared this openly before… 
From leaving a war-torn country… to Green Bay… to study medicine… to heartbreak… to discovering God’s call in ministry… to church hurt… to the expansion of ministry into humanitarian work… to continuing to wait on God…
This conversation is more than just a story. It’s a reminder that God wastes nothing.
If you’ve ever:• wondered how God uses painful seasons• struggled to trust His direction• felt discouraged in ministry• questioned your purpose• or needed hope that your story still matters…
… this conversation is for you.
Because sometimes the hardest parts of our story become the very places God moves most powerfully.

Gen Z is one of the most anxious generations in history, and many people feel stuck wondering why anxiety still lingers even though they love God.
Is anxiety simply medical? Is it spiritual? Or is there something deeper happening in our formation and discipleship?
In this conversation, we explore what the Bible actually says about anxiety, fear, control, and trust. You’ll see that even faithful people in Scripture struggled with fear, and that feeling anxious does not mean you are failing spiritually.
God’s response to anxiety is not shame. It’s invitation.
The goal is not to never feel anxious. The goal is to not let anxiety lead you.
If you’ve been battling anxious thoughts, emotional overwhelm, or fear about the future, this episode is for you.

In today’s culture, expressing our emotions is often seen as the highest form of authenticity.
But what happens when emotions begin to control our decisions, relationships, and spiritual lives?
In this episode, we’re talking about the danger of unchecked emotions and what the Bible says about surrendering our feelings to God instead of being ruled by them. We’ll explore how negative emotions, when left unaddressed, can lead us into sin, damage relationships, and slowly pull us away from trusting God.
If you’ve ever felt controlled by anger, anxiety, fear, insecurity, or discouragement, this conversation will help you think biblically about your emotions and learn how to bring them under the lordship of Jesus.

What do you do with emotions like anxiety, anger, sadness, disappointment, or fear? Are emotions something Christians should suppress, something we should follow, or something we should surrender to God?
In this episode, we’re talking honestly about emotions: where they come from, what they reveal, and how they fit into the Christian life. Because while emotions are real and God-given, they were also affected by the fall. That means our feelings can reveal what’s happening in our hearts, but they were never meant to become our authority.
At the end of the day, emotions make wonderful servants but terrible masters. Your feelings are real, but they are not your authority… God is.
If you’ve ever wondered, “Does God care how I feel?” or struggled to know what to do with difficult emotions, this conversation is for you.

Have you ever felt like you’re doing all the right things, showing up, staying consistent, trying to grow, and yet… nothing is changing?
You’re not alone.
In this episode, we’re talking about the real reason you lose motivation and what to do when discipline feels impossible. From burnout and overcommitment to chasing the wrong outcomes, Lina breaks down why we quit too soon and how to regain momentum.
This is a conversation about the daily, ordinary faithfulness no one sees… and why it matters more than you think.
If you’re tired, discouraged, or ready to give up, this episode will remind you where true motivation comes from, and how to keep going.

We all have habits, but not all of them are helping us follow Jesus.
In this episode, we’re talking honestly about the habits that quietly shape our lives and how to break the ones that don’t honor God.
If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t know when to say no,” you’re not alone. That tension is real, especially in a culture that normalizes distraction and blurs the line between what’s harmless and what’s actually pulling you away from God.
So how do you know the difference between a bad habit and a sinful one? And more importantly, how do you change?
If you’re ready to stop feeling stuck and start walking in victory, this episode is for you.

Everyone talks about spiritual growth… but where do you even start?
If you’re Gen Z (or just feel like one), you’ve probably thought: I want to build better habits… but I’m not sure which ones actually matter.
In this episode, we’re breaking it down in a way that’s simple, practical, and rooted in Scripture.
Because here’s the truth: Habits don’t save you, but they do position you for growth.
We’ll look at how spiritual habits show up all throughout the Bible, and most importantly, we’ll talk about this:
Spiritual habits aren’t about doing more; they’re about being with God.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to grow in your faith, this episode will help you take your next step.Helpful resources:

Are habits overrated… or are they quietly shaping everything about your life?
In this episode, we’re talking about something that doesn’t always feel spiritual but absolutely is: your habits. Because the truth is, you don’t become like Christ by accident. You become like Christ by what you consistently practice.
From a Gen Z perspective, habits can feel restrictive, forced, or even unnecessary. But what if small, daily choices are actually forming the direction of your life more than you realize?
So if you’ve ever struggled to stay consistent, felt stuck in cycles, or wondered if the “little things” really matter, this episode will help you see your habits in a whole new light.
Because spiritual maturity isn’t built in a moment… it’s cultivated over time.
