    When You Feel Empty But God Isn’t Finished

    Send us Fan Mail What do you do when your life feels barren, emotionally, spiritually, and even physically? In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by pastor and award-winning author Denise Walker as she shares her journey through trauma, depression, miscarriage, and healing. In the middle of it all, one truth shifted everything: “Want God more than you want anything else.” We talk about what surrender really looks like, how forgiveness is a process, and why your identity in Christ matters when your past keeps trying to define you. Denise also shares practical ways to recognize a barren season—like over-busyness and avoidance and how prayer, writing, and Scripture can become tools for healing. If you’re in an in-between season, wondering if anything will grow again, this episode will remind you: God is still faithful even here. ✨ Subscribe, share with someone who needs this, and help spread hope between the prayer and the promise.

    Hidden Pain, Real Healing: When God Won’t Just Take It Away

    Soul Ties, Church Hurt, And Finally Breathing Again

    Send us Fan Mail Freedom sounds inspiring… until it asks you to face what you’ve spent years pushing down. In this episode, we’re talking about the kind of Christian freedom that doesn’t fit in a caption—the kind that requires surrender, honesty, and walking through a real healing process when you’re tired of performing “I’m fine.” Our guest, Gina Fox, founder of Anchored by the Sword, shares her journey of breaking bondage and discovering her true identity in Christ. From the moment she realized she wasn’t as free as she thought, to walking through a transformative 13-week freedom journey, Gina opens up about what it looks like to bring hidden wounds into the light and experience true deliverance—including the powerful practice of soul tie breaking. We also anchor this conversation in Genesis 50:20—because while that verse sounds victorious on paper, it can feel like warfare when you’re living through the “harm” part. And we go where many faith conversations don’t:  ✨ Mental health in the church  ✨ Infertility and the pain of unfulfilled desires  ✨ The silent shame that grows in isolation Gina reminds us that seeking help is not a lack of faith—therapy, counseling, and even medication can be part of a faithful, healing journey. And even when life doesn’t look like what you prayed for, God is still able to “birth” purpose through your pain. We close anchored in Hebrews 10:23—holding tightly to hope, trusting that God is faithful to keep every promise. If you’ve been waiting on God and wondering if He sees you… this episode is for you. 🎧 Press play  💬 Share with someone who needs strength  ⭐ Leave a review and tell us the promise you’re holding onto Support the show Between the Prayer and the Promise is a podcast under the Laneice Leads platform. 🎧 New episodes release monthly 📍 Pre-recorded and shared on Facebook 👉 Follow & join the conversation on Facebook:  facebook.com/LaneiceLeads   Interested in being a guest?  📩 Guest interest form: https://forms.gle/MWz3XzmWnKJSaGiFA ✨ Remember: God sees you.

    Rebuilding My Identity After Job Loss

    Send us Fan Mail A job can end in a single meeting, but the identity you built around it doesn’t disappear that fast. We’re talking about the kind of loss that doesn’t just change your schedule, it shakes your sense of self and makes you ask the question you don’t always want to say out loud: “God, if You’ve got something better, why does this hurt so much?”  We’re joined by Monica Wilson, a mother and woman of faith whose life took a major, unexpected turn after 18 years in the banking and finance industry. Monica shares what her role meant to her, how easy it was to lead with a title instead of identity in Christ, and what happened when a traffic stop turned into a termination. We walk through the emotional reality of sudden career transition, from shock and fear to the slow work of rebuilding, and we also get practical about what helps: prayer, wise counsel, advocating for yourself, budgeting, and creating healthy structure when the future feels uncertain.  As the conversation unfolds, Monica points to the deep lessons God taught her in the in-between season, including the peace that comes from knowing God will provide and the anchor of Romans 8:28. We also talk motherhood, being present for your kids, caring for aging parents, and how new purpose can be born through volunteering, mentoring, and stepping out of your comfort zone. Monica’s online ministry, Heavenly Love Vibes, is a powerful example of how a closed door can become a calling you never planned.  If you’ve been grieving a loss or trying to trust God while life feels unsteady, listen all the way through and share it with someone who needs hope.

    Time To Exhale

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when the strong friend finally breaks? The people who hold everyone else together rarely get asked the simplest question: Are you okay? In this powerful episode of Between the Prayer and the Promise, host Laneice  sits down with Dr. LaTonya  Baker, author of It's Time to Exhale, for an honest conversation about emotional exhaustion, hidden pain, trauma, toxic relationships, and the silent burden of always being “the strong one.” Together, they unpack how childhood wounds, fear of abandonment, and survival mode can quietly shape the way we love, overgive, and stay connected to people who continue to hurt us. Dr. Baker shares deep insight on boundaries, emotional healing, self-worth, and the difficult process of learning how to receive support instead of always rescuing others. This episode also explores faith, surrender, and what true healing looks like when you stop performing strength and finally allow God to restore the parts of you that have been silently bleeding. From emotional burnout and people-pleasing to rebuilding after loss, this conversation is filled with wisdom, vulnerability, and practical encouragement for anyone carrying too much. In this episode, we discuss: • Emotional exhaustion and burnout • Childhood trauma and fear of abandonment • Toxic relationships and overgiving • Faith, healing, and surrendering control to God • Healthy boundaries and emotional healing • Survival mode, anxiety, and hidden pain • Learning to ask for help without shame • Self-care, restoration, and rediscovering peace • Why strong people struggle in silence • Christian encouragement for healing and growth If you’ve been holding everything together while quietly falling apart inside, this episode is your reminder that healing is possible — and you do not have to carry it all alone. 🎧 Subscribe to Between the Prayer and the Promise for more faith-filled conversations about healing, purpose, breakthrough, and navigating the season between prayer and fulfillment. #EmotionalHealing #FaithPodcast #ChristianPodcast #TraumaHealing #Boundaries #MentalHealthAwareness #HealingJourney #PeoplePleasing #SelfWorth #WomenOfFaith #OvercomingTrauma #EmotionalBurnout #BetweenThePrayerAndThePromise #LaneiceMcGee #DrNataliaBaker Support the show Between the Prayer and the Promise is a podcast under the Laneice Leads platform. 🎧 New episodes release monthly 📍 Pre-recorded and shared on Facebook 👉 Follow & join the conversation on Facebook:  facebook.com/LaneiceLeads   Interested in being a guest?  📩 Guest interest form: https://forms.gle/MWz3XzmWnKJSaGiFA ✨ Remember: God sees you.
