Healer & Hope Giver: A Christian Podcast on Healing, Faith & Identity
Healer & Hope Giver: A Christian Podcast on Healing, Faith & Identity
There are seasons when life looks steady on the outside but feels heavy on the inside.
This Christian podcast is a space for honest conversations about healing, faith, grief, identity, spiritual growth, and the quiet work God does in the middle of real life.
Hosted by author and speaker Kim Hawkins, Healer & Hope Giver: Practicing Out Loud explores what it means to live from who God says you are — not from pressure, performance, or old narratives that no longer fit.
Each week you’ll find:
• Long-form episodes on healing and growth in everyday life
• Devotional episodes rooted in Scripture with real-life application
• Gentle encouragement for anyone navigating grief, change, leadership, identity shifts, or spiritual formation
If you’ve ever felt:
– like you’re the steady one everyone leans on
– like healing is happening but still unfolding
– like faith is real but complicated
– or like you’re carrying more than you can explain
You are not alone.
This is a faith-based podcast for those who want depth, not noise. For those who love God but are still becoming. For those learning to loosen their grip and live with open hands.
New episodes release every Monday (long-form) and Thursday (devotional).

You don’t have to rush your healing.
You just have to stay.

Devotional 13: When Hope Begins to Feel Steady
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
There are seasons when hope feels fragile — measured, cautious, and quietly guarded.
And then, sometimes without fanfare, something shifts. Breath feels easier. Expectation softens. You begin to trust without bracing for disappointment.
In this devotional, we sit with what it looks like when hope becomes steady. Through Romans 15, Psalm 27, Isaiah 30, and Psalm 131, we explore quiet strength, settled belonging, and the kind of confidence that grows through safety rather than performance.
If you’ve been learning to live without constant internal alertness, this space is for you.
