Unknowns Aren’t Without Purpose - Kim Bain

Are you willing to trust the Lord with your unknown as much as your future? If you have ever found yourself in a season of minimal clarity and maximum uncertainty, this episode of for you. In this engaging conversation, Bethany Barr Phillips sits down with Florida native and long time friend, Kim Bain, to discuss the purpose of the “unknowns” in life, those “in between” seasons.

They explore how personal experiences shape responses to uncertainty and the significance of faith in trusting through the hard seasons. Those seasons often involve transition from one thing to another, and recognizing that each person’s path is different will allow you to see a clearer purpose in it all. They highlight that while the journey may not always lead to immediate rewards, it ultimately leads to spiritual growth which glorifies God. Don’t miss this one — The unknown isn’t without purpose. The in-betweens aren’t without promise. 

 

• Pioneering into the unknown requires trust in the Lord and His purpose for your life, or you will find yourself lost.
• The Lord doesn't expect you to separate your your humanity from your Christianity. He knows your fears, but calls you to go anyway. 
• Fortifying our responses to challenges is essential for growth.
• We are better off knowing the presence of Jesus MORE than His plans.
• Being open to change can lead to unexpected blessings.
• We must be willing to wait on the reward and waiting faithfully means living in active obedience.
