About this episode

Scott and Debra discuss the challenges of faith and unanswered prayers with guest Meg, sharing personal stories and insights.

What happens when you have faith… and nothing changes? In this deeply personal episode, Scott and Deb sit down with Meg to talk about what it feels like when prayers seem unanswered, outcomes don’t shift, and God feels silent. Meg shares her family’s journey—raising a daughter born deaf and navigating years of exhausting uncertainty with their son—while doing everything “right” and still not getting the miracle they hoped for. This episode wrestles with: Why faith doesn’t always lead to the outcome we want The trap of treating God like a “vending machine” What it really means to trust Him The difference between faith in outcomes vs. faith in a relationship How to find peace when nothing changes If you’ve ever felt forgotten, frustrated, or like you’re doing everything right and it’s still not working—this conversation is for you. 👉 You’re not doing it wrong. 👉 You’re not alone. 👉 And God may be closer than you think.
