Even If Podcast
You want to believe God is good, faithful and just but have lived enough life to know that it isn't always that simple or easy. It's alright - pull up a chair and sit a spell. You're in good company.
Host Kristi Lowe knows our stories are probably different, but if you’ve been hurt or broken, mad at God or ready to give up - we probably have more in common than you think. Kristi talks candidly the challenges of living out the Christian faith - everything from family dynamics, church hurt, gossip and addiction to politics, prostitution, mental health, suicide, pornography, addiction or ANYTHING in between - nothing is off limits. Because one thing is for sure - God is big enough to handle our toughest questions, she's seen that first hand.
Each Tuesday on the Even If podcast, you'll hear stories of faith, and honest conversation about the challenges of trusting God in the hard times. Each episode shows us just a little bit more of Jesus - the ultimate beacon of hope in this dark world - Even If we can't see or understand it all.

Control Freak Pt 4: A Better Way
We don’t need to grasp so tightly onto control. Instead, let’s focus on staying true to God’s promise which always has a bigger picture in mind. Join me as I chat about finding a better way than what we convinced ourselves to follow even as we feel resistance.
For the past month, we’ve been talking about different aspects of control. There will be times the Lord has plans for our life, but he has to make sure that we’re ready for it. We get tested. I’m reminded that we’re never past the point of needing the Lord to help us stay centered throughout those moments.
After wrestling with my own understanding, I decided to do this series about releasing control and trusting God. This episode is Control Freak Part 4, A Better Way. My prayer is that this series allows us to loosen our grip and have softer hands that open towards God’s will, protection, and love.
You’ll Learn:
- [03:43] Kristi adds context to the previous episode regarding King David’s story.
- [06:47] Most people rather opt out of the pain before God’s promise than endure for God’s promise.
- [12:28] You’ll get a nudge that you’re doing the wrong thing.
- [18:00] Kristi talks about temptation, resisting noise, and trusting God.
- [23:49] You can feel safe to let go.
