Light In Your Corner
Join Lauren and Monica as they discuss how to live in and bless our surrounding culture while carrying the LIGHT that cannot be overcome.
We are two women joining Jesus in our neighborhood while navigating family, friendships, work, creativity, and chronic health issues. We don't always do things right the first time, and we have a borderline-unhealthy relationship with British mystery novels, but with God we can find the humor and the heart behind most things. Light in Your Corner is our first podcast.

(67) When Things are Hard, You Can Trust God’s Heart
When Things are Hard, You Can Trust God’s Heart
There may be a lot of questions raised by the first chapters of Exodus, but one thing is very clear: God knows what He is about. And soon everyone is going to know.
In chapters 5-7, we see how God responds to doubt and how He responds to evil, and it’s not necessarily the same response. When we are scared, He says, “Look at Me. Look at what I have done for you. Trust My heart for you.” And then He sends us to do the thing He has for us so we can practice our faith in real life.
Are you afraid? We hope this episode gives you confidence in the God who equips and sustains you as you live with Him.
