240. When the Answer To Your Prayer Is NO

<p><strong>This is the story of a Jasmine-scented South African summer night.</strong></p> <p>This is a story about disappointment in God, and this is a conversation about the dreams that do NOT come true.</p> <p>Christie and Lisa-Jo recorded this episode the week of Christie&#39;s twenty-second wedding anniversary. They marveled over the long years of their friendship, and all the dreams-come-true they have witnessed in each other&#39;s lives.</p> <p><strong>But what about those dreams that don&#39;t come true?</strong></p> <p>Can we trust a God who sometimes says NO? Is that God still good?</p> <p>Lisa-Jo tells the story of her most bitter disappointment and the surprising encounter she had one warm, South African night.</p> <p><strong>Podcast links:</strong><br/> Follow Lisa-Jo on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lisajobaker/?hl=en" rel="nofollow">@lisajobaker</a> and Christie at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/christiepurifoy/?hl=en" rel="nofollow">@christiepurifoy</a> and please leave a review about what you think about today&#39;s podcast!</p> <p><a href="https://www.blackbarnonline.com/" rel="nofollow">Click here</a> to join the conversations we have with listeners every week around the podcast.</p> <p>_______</p> <p>Sponsor appreciation: We&#39;re so grateful to partner with show sponsors that keep making our work possible.</p> <p><a href="https://greenchef.com/ordinary60" rel="nofollow">Click here</a> to visit Green Chef and use code ordinary60 to get 60% off plus free shipping!
