When God Says No

Do you still feel anxious even after praying about your fears? Many Christians struggle with anxiety that persists despite faithful prayer—and wonder if something is wrong with them or their faith.

In this episode, Rachel tackles one of the most common questions she receives: "Why do I still feel anxious after praying about my fears?" She shares why prayer doesn't always remove fear and what it does instead, along with a powerful story about her daughter Tris's journey of learning to rely on God day by day when healing hasn't come the way they prayed.

You'll discover:
Why anxiety after prayer isn't a sign of weak faith
Practical steps for praying when fear won't let go
The difference between God removing our challenges versus giving us courage to walk through them
How God's provision of daily strength can be the miracle

If you're in a season where anxiety feels overwhelming and your prayers feel ineffective, this episode will remind you that God doesn't ask for perfect courage—just honest hearts willing to bring their fears to Him.

Have you ever set a New Year prayer goal and watched it slip away by February? If you've felt guilty about your inconsistent prayer life, you're not alone.

In this episode, Rachel tackles the honest question so many of us carry: "How do I stop feeling guilty about my inconsistent prayer life?" You'll discover why God isn't keeping a scorecard—He's keeping the door open—and how small, faithful steps matter more than perfect streaks.

In this episode, you'll learn:
Why guilt doesn't have to be your companion in prayer
How Lamentations 3:22-23 offers a fresh start every single morning
Why prayer is about presence, not performance
The truth that God honors the return, not the record
A listener's powerful story of rebuilding her prayer life after burnout
