****Top 10% Global Ranking**** Are you wondering if you can trust God with your mess? Do you long for more peace, clarity, and confidence in both God and yourself? Are you tired of holding it together for everyone else while feeling overwhelmed or unseen inside? Do you desire to live with integrity, depth, and a faith that feels steady even in uncertain seasons? Then you are in the right place, my friend. This podcast offers honest, faith-filled conversations to help you find peace with God in seasons of transition, uncertainty, and everyday chaos. Through biblical truth, real-life stories, and practical encouragement, you’ll be supported as you heal emotionally, grow spiritually, and feel more secure in your identity in Christ. Hi. I’m Sarah. A wife, mom of three, and the big sister you didn’t know you needed. My earlier adult years were marked by confusion, waiting, deep growth, and real pain. I loved Jesus and wanted to follow Him faithfully, but I struggled to trust Him fully with my life. I searched for worth through approval, relationships, and achievement. I carried emotional wounds far longer than I should have, and I exhausted myself trying to feel secure in all the wrong places. God eventually led me into a season that required total trust and dependence on Him. Through that season, and through the mentorship of wise, godly women who met me in my vulnerability, my relationship with Christ was transformed. They were the spiritual mentors and encouragers I didn’t know I needed at the time. As I began to understand that my identity was rooted in Christ, not in my performance, relationships, or roles, everything started to shift. My confidence grew. My trust in God deepened. I found contentment, clarity, and a new steadiness in my calling. I began to see that every season God had walked me through, even the painful and confusing ones, carried purpose He could redeem for His glory. Now, I want to walk alongside you. Whether you are navigating early adulthood, motherhood, transition, grief, uncertainty, or a season where life feels especially heavy, this podcast is here to remind you that you are not alone and that God is near. So, if you’re ready to: Heal from past wounds and unresolved pain… Feel rooted and steady in your faith… Have a safe place to bring your mess to God… Understand who God is, who you are, and how those intersect in real life… Then this podcast is for you. Come as you are. Yoga pants optional. Bible open. Let’s walk this out together. Join the TGBC Insiders: https://sarah-coppiano.kit.com/insider What to join other listeners in an exclusive community?

    Why Change Feels So Scary And What It Reveals About Your Identity in Christ

    Have you ever walked through a major life change and suddenly felt unsure of who you are? When a role, routine, or season shifts, does your sense of security feel shaken too? Have you noticed how much peace you attach to sameness, predictability, or being needed? What happens internally when the things you’ve built your life around are taken away? This episode is for anyone navigating transition, identity shifts, anxiety around change, or confusion about calling and purpose. In this episode, we explore how major life shifts often reveal where our identity and security have been quietly rooted. I share how, over time, my identity slowly moved from who I am in Christ to what I was doing. Not intentionally. Not rebelliously. Gradually. And when those roles and rhythms were disrupted, I felt lost and unsettled. We talk about the difference between identity and function. How we often confuse calling with worth. And why change feels so threatening when our security is built on sameness instead of on Christ. This conversation centers on Galatians 2:19–21 as the foundational scripture for identity in Christ. A reminder that our old ways of defining ourselves have been crucified with Christ, and that our life now flows from Him, not from performance, productivity, or people-pleasing.   Contact → https://www.facebook.com/share/g/17npCJcUYY/ Instagram → @sarah.coppiano Resources → www.sarahcoppiano.com

    Disappointment Isn’t the Problem. What You Do With It Is (A Biblical Path to Healing) | 34

    Ever worked hard for something you loved, only to feel overlooked or undervalued? Have you ever had the rug pulled out from under you right when you thought things were finally moving forward? Do you struggle with disappointment that quietly turns into bitterness or self-doubt? Are you ignoring a disappointment because it hurts too much to face? Do you replay a situation over and over, assigning meaning and intent that may not be true? In this episode, I’m unpacking the pain of disappointment and the two unhealthy extremes we often fall into when life doesn’t go the way we hoped. Ignoring it or amplifying it. I share a personal story of workplace disappointment and how unprocessed hurt slowly turned into resentment, insecurity, and distorted self-beliefs. We’ll talk honestly about how disappointment shows up in our jobs, relationships, church spaces, leadership dynamics, and seasons where expectations go unmet. You’ll learn why ignoring disappointment doesn’t make it go away. It only buries it. And why amplifying disappointment can feel justified but often keeps us stuck, assigning false narratives and blocking reconciliation. We’ll also name the role pride plays in both responses and how it quietly hardens our hearts. Most importantly, I walk through the biblical practice of acknowledgement. How to name the pain without becoming bitter. How to pursue reconciliation when it’s needed. And how to release disappointment to God when healing doesn’t come the way we hoped. This episode is for anyone carrying unresolved disappointment and longing for emotional healing, restored peace, and renewed trust in God.   Contact → https://bit.ly/TrustGodBeConfident Connect → Join our free Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/share/g/17npCJcUYY/ Instagram → @sarah.coppiano Resources → www.sarahcoppiano.com   Next Steps: Step 1: Join a supportive community of women learning to trust God in transition inside the free Facebook group Step 2: Sign up for the weekly newsletter for encouragement, biblical truth, and practical faith tools at https://bit.ly/tgbc-insider Step 3: Get more personalized support through faith-based coaching resources coming soon

    Ever say, “I trust God” but realize real life is testing that statement? Feel stuck between knowing what the Bible says and struggling to believe it applies to your situation? Trying to let go of control but afraid everything will fall apart if you do?   In this episode, I’m sharing why trusting God can feel so difficult in seasons of transition, anxiety, and uncertainty, especially when you’re trying to let go of control but don’t feel safe doing so. If you’ve ever wrestled with trusting God in hard times, struggled to hear God’s voice, or felt overwhelmed by fear, waiting, or emotional exhaustion, this conversation is for you. We explore how life with the Lord is one long trust fall, walking through obstacles that stretch your faith and require surrender again and again. Using three powerful names of God from Scripture. Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Nissi, and Abba Father, we unpack God’s character as faithful provider, victorious protector, and loving Father. These truths help anchor your faith, calm anxiety, and build spiritual confidence when peace feels far away and clarity feels out of reach.

    Have you ever heard the quote, “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results”? So what if this year, we stopped setting vague spiritual goals. And instead, we did something different. In this episode, I’m sharing why simply saying “I want to grow spiritually” isn’t enough. And how creating a simple, intentional spiritual growth plan can change everything. I walk you through what I’m personally changing this year. I also share a powerful story from our family that reframed spiritual growth for me in a whole new way. Growth happens when we get what we actually need.

This isn’t about doing more. It’s about being intentional so real growth can happen. What You’ll Learn in This Episode Why repeating the same spiritual habits won’t lead to new growth How to stop letting life lead you and start leading your spiritual life A simple framework for creating a spiritual growth plan that’s realistic How to inventory your current prayer life, Bible reading, and community Practical tools to deepen your prayer life, including praying Scripture Why quarterly check-ins can keep you focused and encouraged The role of community, accountability, and discipleship in real growth Scripture, Tools, & Resources Mentioned Jennie Allen Dream Guide Prayer lists and prayer schedules Praying Scripture.

    Feeling Like You’re Not Behind in Life? Faith for Women Still in the Middle

    What if you’re ending the year without clarity. Still waiting. Still in transition. Still carrying unanswered prayers into the new year. In this episode, I talk honestly about what it means to live in the middle. That in between season where life feels unresolved and faith feels quieter, yet God is still present and faithful. This conversation is for Christian women navigating transition, waiting on God, motherhood, and seasons that feel unfinished. I share how the song The Middle by Jimmy Eat World became a personal anthem during a season of transition and why the concept of “the middle” still matters today. 🎵 Song referenced: 👉 The Middle by Jimmy Eat World https://open.spotify.com/track/6GG73Jik4jUlQCkKg9JuGO?si=4406562a4a4d425a We explore the cultural pressure to end the year with answers and why clarity is not required for faithfulness. Through the stories of Hannah and Ruth, we see how God works in waiting, obedience, and uncertainty. Scriptures referenced: 1 Samuel 1:12–16 Ruth 2:11–12 Proverbs 3:5–7 Philippians 4:7 If you’re ending the year in the middle, you’re not behind. You’re being held. 👉 Join my email newsletter for encouragement and support for women walking through seasons of transition and waiting. https://bit.ly/tgbc-insider   Contact → https://bit.ly/TrustGodBeConfident Connect → Join our free Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/share/g/17npCJcUYY/ Instagram → @sarahcoppiano Resources → www.sarahcoppiano.com

    Afraid of the Future? How to Receive a Word From God for the New Year (Biblical, Prayerful, and Peace-Filled) | 30

    As the year comes to a close, many of us start reflecting on what’s behind us and wondering what’s ahead. The new year can feel hopeful and heavy at the same time. Full of possibility, but also full of unknowns. In this episode, I’m sharing a personal testimony from a season when God gently but clearly confronted my fear of the future and invited me into a deeper level of trust. What started as a quiet moment of Scripture reading turned into a word that shaped my entire year and transformed my mindset. Together, we’ll slow down and talk about what it actually looks like to seek God at the end of the year. Not from a place of pressure or performance, but from a posture of listening and faith. 🤍 In this episode, we talk about: ✨ Why the end of the year is a powerful time to reflect with God ✨ A personal story of receiving a word that shifted my faith from fear to trust ✨ What Scripture teaches us about believing God for what’s ahead ✨ How I personally pray and discern a word or verse for the new year ✨ What to do when you don’t receive a specific word and why peace still counts This episode is for the woman who wants to enter the new year grounded, not anxious. Anchored in faith, not fear. And reminded that God is already present in what’s ahead. 🙏 Scripture Used in This Episode 📖 Luke 1:45 (NIV) “Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill His promises to her!” Proverbs 31:25 Her clothes are strength and honor. She is full of joy about the future. If you’re heading into a new year longing for clarity, encouragement, and a deeper connection with God, I’d love to stay connected with you.

    Feeling Far From God? Or Just Burned Out? 3 Tests to Tell + Practical Biblical Truths

    If you have been feeling spiritually off, overwhelmed, numb, or distant from God, this episode is going to bring some much needed clarity. So many Christian women assume distance from God automatically means something is wrong with their faith. The truth is that sometimes it is not your heart drifting. It is your body running on empty. Today we walk through three simple tests that help you discern whether you are dealing with a drained body or a disengaged heart, and how to respond biblically no matter where you land. You will learn how to check your emotional capacity with honesty, how to evaluate desire versus avoidance, and how to look at the fruit your life is producing. You will also get practical steps to renew your mind, rebuild healthy rhythms, and move forward without shame. If you are walking through burnout, spiritual dullness, or confusion in your faith journey, this episode will help you slow down, reconnect, and breathe again. Throughout the conversation, we root everything in Scripture so you can see what God actually says about weakness, rest, obedience, and renewal. Isaiah 40:29. God gives strength to the weary.  Psalm 23. The Lord leads you beside still waters.  Matthew 11:28–30. Jesus invites the tired to come to Him for rest.  1 Samuel 15:22. Obedience is better than sacrifice. Inside this episode you will discover the real difference between being spiritually stuck and simply exhausted, the biblical truth about what God expects from you in tired seasons, and how to rebuild rhythms that support both your spiritual and emotional health. If you want weekly support in renewing your mind and building rhythms that actually work in real life, make sure you join my newsletter. I share practical tools for Christian women who want to grow with intention and walk confidently in their calling.

    On the Edge of a Crash Out? What the Bible Says About Anxiety, Overwhelm, and Emotional Health

    This episode is for the woman who feels she is one inconvenience away from spiraling. A few months ago I had a real crash out of my own. It started with car trouble but the truth is, the pressure had been building since my son was born in January 2024. We walked through postpartum anxiety, developmental delays, a hospital stay for failure to thrive, feeding struggles, seizures, and financial strain. By the time another unexpected repair bill hit, I broke. My faith wobbled. My hope felt thin. Then recently, the week before Thanksgiving, I got the call that my mom passed away after a long battle with addiction. While sitting in that grief, our family van broke down with all my kids inside. It should have been another crash out moment. But instead, I heard this: Do not be dismayed. That took me straight to Isaiah 41.10. the verse God uses to pull you back from fear, overwhelm, and that shattered feeling you can’t put language to. In this episode we talk about: • What “dismayed” really means and why it hits so deep • How God starts with presence before promise • Learning to receive His strength instead of trying to muster your own • Elijah’s crash out in 1 Kings 19 and why his burnout mirrors ours • How God upholds you when life feels impossible If you’re carrying fear, anxiety, grief, or spiritual exhaustion, this episode will remind you that God has not left you. You are held. And you are strengthened. ✨ Join my newsletter for spiritual growth and weekly encouragement: bit.ly/tgbcinsider   Contact → https://bit.ly/TrustGodBeConfident Connect → Join our free Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/share/g/17npCJcUYY/ Instagram → @sarahcoppiano Resources → www.sarahcoppiano.com
