What do you do when you feel buried by fear, pressure, or pain? Today’s episode tells the true story of hope in a mine shaft—and reminds you that God is still writing your rescue story, even when all seems lost.

Ever feel like you’re stuck in a situation with no way out?

In today’s episode, we look at the incredible story of the 2010 Chilean mine rescue—and discover what it teaches us about God’s faithfulness in hopeless places. Paul’s words in 2 Corinthians remind us: God doesn’t always change our situation right away, but He always meets us in it.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

• Why dark, desperate places don’t mean God has abandoned you
• What the Apostle Paul learned in his own season of despair
• How God still rescues—even when we can’t see how

There’s no pit so deep that God’s hand can’t reach in and pull you out.

If today’s devotion gave you hope, share it with someone who might feel stuck in a hopeless place.

You never know who needs to hear that God still rescues.

When life hurts and the future feels uncertain, worship may be the last thing on your mind. But today’s devotion shows how choosing to worship—especially in the waiting—can bring peace, even before the answer comes.

Have you ever been too heartbroken or overwhelmed to pray?

In today’s episode, we hear the true story of a mom who learned how to worship even while her baby fought for his life. Her strength didn’t come from her situation—but from a God who met her in the middle of it. Psalm 30 reminds us: worship doesn’t ignore our pain—it gives us hope in it.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

• Why worship is powerful even when you’re still waiting on answers
• How Psalm 30 invites us to bring our pain into God’s presence
• The hope that comes from knowing God can change us before He changes our circumstances

Worship may not fix everything—but it will give you peace in the middle of anything.

You don’t have to have the right words or perfect prayers—God already knows your need. Today’s devotion reminds you that real hope begins with trusting His care before you even speak.

Ever feel like you don’t know what to say when you pray?

Whether your heart is tired or your mind is racing, it’s easy to wonder if your prayers are enough. But Jesus offers hope in Matthew 6:8—before you even ask, your Father knows what you need. And He’s already working on your behalf.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

• Why hope begins with a God who sees before we speak
• How a WWII story reflects the heart of our heavenly Father
• What it means to rest in the care of a God who is never late

When you can’t find the words, let His love be enough.
