Today, we’re diving into a topic that’s not often talked about, God’s anger, and what it reveals about His deep compassion for us.

In this episode, Christina unpacks these questions and powerful Biblical truths about anger, justice and the fierce love of God that moves Him to defend His children. You’ll hear encouragement from Scripture, reflections from the book "Gentle and Lowly" and practical questions to help you discern where God might be inviting you to trust His heart even in hard places.

If you’ve ever wrestled with anger, been wronged by others or simply needed a reminder that God is not indifferent to your hurt, this episode is for you.

In today’s episode, Christina takes us into the Old Testament story of the Bronze Serpent—a puzzling but powerful moment in Israel's journey to the Promised Land. She unpacks the Gospel truth hidden in this passage, revealing how it directly points to Jesus’ redemptive work on the cross. Through the Israelites' struggle, we learn invaluable lessons about trusting God in the face of setbacks, and Christina ties it all back to Ephesians 2—a life-changing reminder that we are saved by grace through faith, not by our own works.

If you’ve ever found yourself striving to make yourself "lovable" to God, this episode is for you. Christina invites you to release that burden and embrace the powerful truth that you are saved by grace alone—nothing we can do (or fail to do) can add to the sufficiency of Christ’s sacrifice. Tune in for this refreshing reminder of God’s relentless love and grace that meets us exactly where we are.
