Trials Episodes

Trouble will either silence your faith—or amplify it. In this powerful conclusion to When Trouble Comes: Finding God in the Storm, we move from running in fear to standing in faith. Paul and Silas weren’t just in a storm—they were beaten, chained, and locked in a prison. Yet at midnight, instead of complaining, they prayed and sang praises. This episode explores what it means to worship God when nothing around you makes sense. When you’re hurting. When you’re confined. When you’re waiting. Because sometimes, God doesn’t calm the storm right away—He strengthens your voice in the middle of it. And when you choose worship in the dark, chains don’t just fall off you—they break off others too.
