    When the brook dries up...

    In 1 Kings 17, God leads Elijah to the brook Cherith—a place of provision, safety, and daily dependence. But then,  the brook dries up. In this episode of When the Brook Dries Up, we explore what it means to trust God when the very thing He once used to sustain us is no longer flowing. What do we do when a season ends, prayers feel unanswered, or the familiar sources of security disappear? Do we allow Him to lead us into the next thing he may be moving us towards? This episode invites listeners to see dry seasons not as abandonment, but as divine redirection. The drying brook is often the signal that God is about to expand our faith, deepen our obedience, and reveal Himself in unexpected ways—just as He did when He sent Elijah to the widow at Zarephath. If you’re walking through uncertainty, transition, or spiritual dryness, this episode offers encouragement to listen closely for God’s next instruction and to trust that His provision has not ended—it has only changed. Because when the brook dries up, God is wanting to do a new thing in your life. Send us a text Support the show Thank you for listening today.

    The God who sees you...

    Today we look at the story of Hagar, in Genesis 16. We see Hagar's mistreatment being put in a position she surely didn't ask to be in.... and in the midst of that the angel of the Lord directs her and blesses her.
