In this episode of the Heart Set Above Podcast, host Ellen Radcliff, LMFT pauses the Nearness series to set clear expectations: drawing near to God doesn’t mean all of life’s problems vanish. Fear, grief, and anxiety still come—but God’s presence changes how we experience them.
Ellen shares stories from her own life, Scripture, and pastoral counseling to remind us that the antidote to fear is not the absence of fear—it’s the presence of God. His nearness anchors us, even in chaos, heartbreak, or uncertainty. Like a child comforted by a parent’s arms, God’s presence doesn’t always remove the pain, but it transforms how we walk through it.
✨ In this episode, you’ll learn:
Whether you’re carrying fear, walking through loss, or simply weary of life’s brokenness, this conversation will point you back to the one truth that steadies us: God is with us, always.
