Listen "Trading Fear for Being Upheld in God's Hands"
Episode Synopsis
Have you ever been afraid and discouraged? Join Kelly Hall and I as we discuss how we can trade fear for the knowledge that God is holding us.
Kelly Hall, host of the Unshakable Hope podcast, author, and Bible teacher, joins Angela to unpack the hope and comfort found in Isaiah 41:10 and 41:13. With honesty and warmth, Kelly shares how God’s promise to be with us and help us—especially in seasons of loss, disappointment, and uncertainty—has anchored her faith. Together, they discuss how to trust God’s goodness, embrace His presence, and remain in conversation with Him, even when life doesn’t make sense.
Episode Highlights
Angela and Kelly explore the context of Isaiah, focusing on God’s faithfulness to His people even when they feel abandoned or confused by suffering.
The conversation unpacks the personal and powerful promises of Isaiah 41:10 and 41:13—God’s presence, His help, and His tender invitation to trust rather than fear.
Kelly offers practical ways to “remain” in God’s presence: putting your name in Scripture, rehearsing God’s faithfulness, and turning to worship and lament in hard times.
Listeners are encouraged to recognize and confront the lies of fear and suspicion, and to keep an ongoing, honest conversation with God as the key to unshakable hope.
Great Quotes
“At the very root of fear is the lie that God has abandoned us and we have to fix everything ourselves.”
“You are with me and for me in all your wonder-working, sea-splitting, sun-stopping, water-walking, mountain-moving, obstacle-demolishing, death-defying love and power at all times.”
“We don’t believe something by merely saying we believe it… We believe something when we act like it’s true.”
“Remain in conversation with the Lord about everything that’s going on with you—don’t give up on God.”
