Listen "Episode 18: Unlocking the Fear of Asking: A Journey to Renewed Faith"
Episode Synopsis
You’ve been the strong one. The responsible one. The one who holds it all together for everyone else.
But when it comes to asking God for what you really want…
You hesitate.
Because what if He says no?
What if you hope and it doesn’t happen?
What do you do with that pain?
In this episode, Juan and Jenna talk about the fear underneath our silence, the fear of disappointment.
The part of us that would rather stay quiet with God than risk asking for something He might not give.
This conversation is raw, honest, and full of grace for the leader who’s been quietly managing their expectations, not because they don’t believe God is good… but because they’re not sure how to trust again.
In this episode:
Why we hold back in prayer and what fear is really driving it
How disappointment shapes our theology and relationships with God
The difference between control and trust
Why desire is not dangerous and how God invites us to ask
How to rebuild intimacy when hope feels risky
