Hope + Help for Wilderness Seasons with Stacy Reaoch

In this episode of The Hope + Help Project, Christine Chappell interviews author/writer Stacy Reaoch. They discuss her book, "Wilderness Wanderings: Finding Contentment in the Desert Times of Life" to examine God’s big-picture plan of the Israelites’ trek through the wilderness, and how their journey helps us find hope and wisdom for the desert times we face in life. The episode addresses questions such as: • Why it's important to turn to God—and not lesser things—for comfort in sorrows. • Why it's easy to become blinded to God's promises in the midst of suffering and hardship. • Why God's way of escape from temptation may be hard, but the right way nonetheless. • How the story of the Israelite's wilderness journey gives us courage when facing challenging circumstances. • Why it's dangerous to be a Christian "lone ranger."
