What do we do when hope feels out of reach? How do we cling to God in the long nights of suffering and waiting?
In this conversation, I’m joined by author and speaker Vaneetha Risner, who has walked through profound suffering—chronic illness, loss, and divorce—and yet continues to point us to Christ as the source of lasting hope. We talk about her newest book, Watching for the Morning: 90 Devotionals for When Hope Is Hard to Find, and the heart behind writing for those who feel weary, unseen, or stuck in the waiting.
Vaneetha shares honestly about lament, the importance of holding both grief and laughter, and how she has learned to be satisfied in God alone. She also offers encouragement for anyone who feels distant from God or unsure of how to bring their doubts and pain before Him.
Grab your coffee or tea and join us for this heartfelt and hope-filled episode.
