    When You're Angry With God

    Send us Fan Mail When You're Angry With God — Can You Still Have Faith When You Don't Understand?“God, I'm angry with You.” Those are words many believers are afraid to say out loud. What happens when you prayed for something and it didn't happen? What happens when you lost someone you loved? What happens when you waited, believed, prayed, and still didn't get the answer you were hoping for? In this episode of The Willness Podcast, we have an honest conversation about something many Christians experience but rarely talk about: Being angry, disappointed, or frustrated with God. Joined by my two spiritual brothers, we talk openly about the moments when faith becomes difficult, and we don't understand what God is doing. We discuss: • What happens when God says “no” • Unanswered prayers • Losing someone you love • Disappointment with God • Feeling abandoned or forgotten • Questioning God's timing • Being angry without walking away from your faith • Why it's okay to bring your honest feelings to God • How faith survives when you don't have answers • Learning to trust God even when you don't understand Him Sometimes we think having faith means we can never question God, never cry, and never feel angry. But God already knows what's in our hearts. You don't have to pretend with God. You can bring Him your questions. You can bring Him your disappointment. You can bring Him your tears. You can even bring Him your anger. The goal isn't to pretend that everything makes sense. The goal is learning how to say: “God, I don't understand what You're doing, but I'm still going to trust You.” 📖 Psalm 34:18 reminds us: “The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart…” If you've ever struggled to understand why God allowed something to happen, this conversation is for you. Your questions don't make you faithless. Sometimes, they become part of the journey that brings you closer to God. 🎙️ The Willness Podcast — Season 2 Real conversations. Real struggles. Real faith. If this episode speaks to you, share it with someone who may be struggling with God in silence. #WillnessPodcast #WhenYoureAngryWithGod #ChristianPodcast #Faith #JesusChrist #UnansweredPrayers #Healing #ChristianMentalHealth #RealConversations #TrustGod #Season2

    Men Are Hurting Too!

    Send us Fan Mail Men Are Hurting Too — The Conversations Men Are Afraid to Have“Be strong.” “Don't cry.” “Handle it yourself.” “Men don't talk about their feelings.” But what happens when the man everyone depends on is the one who is hurting? In this powerful episode of The Willness Podcast, we have an honest conversation about something that doesn't get talked about enough: Men are hurting too. Joined by my two spiritual brothers, we open up about the pressure men carry behind the scenes—the pressure to provide, protect, lead, be strong, take care of everyone else, and somehow keep everything together. But men experience pain too. We talk about: • The pressure men feel to always be strong • Why men sometimes hide their emotions • Fear of looking weak or being judged • Marriage and relationship pressures • The responsibility of providing for a family • Failure and feeling like you aren't enough • Loneliness and carrying struggles in silence • Asking for help without feeling ashamed • Faith, vulnerability, and emotional healing • What biblical strength really looks like • Why having someone you can trust matters Sometimes the strongest thing a man can say isn't “I've got this.” Sometimes it's: “Brother, I need help.” Being vulnerable doesn't make you weak. Having emotions doesn't make you less of a man. And asking for help doesn't mean you've lost your faith. You can be a man of God and still have moments when you don't know what to do. This conversation is for the men who have been carrying things silently—and for the women, wives, mothers, sisters, and friends who want to better understand the men they love. If you've ever felt like you had to be strong for everybody else while falling apart inside, this episode is for you. 📖 “Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.” — Galatians 6:2 You don't have to carry it alone. 🎙️ The Willness Podcast — Season 2 Real conversations. Real struggles. Real faith. If this episode connects with you, share it with a man who needs to hear: “You don't have to suffer in silence.” #WillnessPodcast #MenAreHurtingToo #MensMentalHealth #ChristianMen #ChristianPodcast #Faith #Healing #JesusChrist #RealConversations #MensMentalHealthMatters #Season2

    Church Hurt & Life Hurt — Finding Healing Through Christ

    Send us Fan Mail “I wasn’t hurt by the world. I was hurt by the church.” But sometimes the truth is even deeper—we've been hurt inside the church and outside the church. People we trusted have disappointed us. Friends have walked away. Family members have wounded us. We've experienced rejection, betrayal, gossip, disappointment, and pain. And sometimes the very people we expected to love us the most are the ones who hurt us the deepest. In this Season 2 episode of The Willness Podcast, we have an honest conversation about Church Hurt & Life Hurt and what it means to heal without allowing someone's actions to destroy our relationship with Christ. Joining me are my two spiritual brothers as we talk openly about: • Being hurt by people inside and outside the church • Betrayal from people we trusted • Rejection and feeling pushed aside • Gossip and judgment • When church experiences leave you questioning your faith • How life experiences can affect your relationship with God • Forgiving without pretending the hurt never happened • Setting healthy boundaries while still walking in love • Can you heal without walking away from Christ? • How God can bring healing from wounds caused by people The church is made up of imperfect people. People can fail us, disappoint us, and hurt us—but Jesus remains faithful. Our goal isn't to attack the church. It's to create a safe and honest conversation about wounds that many people carry silently. If you've ever said, “I don't want to go back because of what happened to me,” this episode is for you. Your hurt is real. Your story matters. And your relationship with Christ doesn't have to end because someone hurt you. God can heal what people wounded. 📖 Scripture: “Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.” — Galatians 6:2 🎙️ The Willness Podcast — Season 2 Real conversations. Real struggles. Real faith.
