ReStoried
What kind of stories come to mind when you think of foster care?
Many stories are filled with heartbreak, pain, and sorrow. But what if we could step in and see them turned into stories of hope?
Hope Bridge is on a gospel-led mission to transform the foster care landscape in Ohio. We're here to raise awareness and empower churches and communities to step into action by supporting vulnerable children and families in their local communities.
We’re certainly not the Author of these stories, and it’s true that we can't change the past, but we are called to be key characters in THE story that God has written for His creation.
His is a story of redemption and restoration, a story of HOPE.
In this podcast, we will share how we link arms with churches, county workers, foster families, and those in the community to rewrite the narrative for vulnerable children and families.
We’ll be shining a light on stories of hope, redemption, and transformation and sharing practical ways that you can step in and get involved.
Subscribe now, and together, let's make a difference in the lives of those who need it most.
Welcome to "ReStoried," a podcast by Hope Bridge.

74. Spiritual Formation: Resting in Jesus, Not Just Working for Him
How do you make sure that your heart is set on Jesus and not always focused solely on the work at hand?
In this episode, we talk about the importance of spiritual formation and how we can intentionally keep our focus on Jesus in the midst of life's busyness. It’s easy to get caught up in doing good work, but how do we ensure that our hearts remain centered on Him?
We’ll explore two spiritual rhythms that have helped us stay grounded:
- Pilgrim’s Feast – A yearly time set aside for reflection and renewal
- Sabbath – A weekly rhythm of rest and worship
We often find reasons to put off rest, but God commands us to pause, reset, and be with Him. We’ll also share practical tips on how to create intentional rhythms of rest and worship in your own life, even when it feels impossible.
Listen in and be encouraged to keep Jesus at the center!
