Embracing Change - Finding Unstoppable Joy in Trusting God
Remember the time when I found myself homeless with my kids? That was a turning point, a moment of deep trust and faith in God. Join me, Katherine McAdam, as I share this personal journey on the Unstoppable Joy Podcast. We’ll discuss embracing seasons of change and learning to let go, just as nature teaches us - with animals hibernating, resting and recharging for a new beginning. We'll also explore the story of Exodus 14, where the Israelites, standing at the banks of the Red Sea, were taught to fear not, stand still, and witness the salvation of the Lord. Navigating through life’s adversities often tests our faith. It's in these trials and tribulations, however, that our faith is fortified. We'll talk about the importance of surrendering to God's plan, even when it doesn't align with ours, because His plans and purposes are far grander than we could ever dream. As we rest in His arms, we take comfort in His promise to protect us and meet our needs. We close the episode by praying for peace and greater reach as we strive to live a life filled with unstoppable joy. This is an invitation for you to trust, let go, and let God take control.

The Jesus I know

The Jesus I know
In this episode of the Unstoppable Joy Podcast, host Kathryn McAdam shares who the True Jesus is in comparison to the one that is often portrayed by the Christian church or those who claim to be Christians. Kathryn discusses sever encounters of Jesus with individuals in the Bible. Jesus was loving and not judgmental of those who He spoke with. He offered forgiveness and encouragement to live life better.  Many believe that in order to come to faith in Christ they have to first leave their sin behind. This is backwards thinking...once we come to Christ we are changed by knowing His forgiveness. Jesus loves us just as we are but so much that He won’t leave us in our sinful state. He came that we might have life abundantly!  We can know acceptance, love, joy and freedom in the power found in a relationship with Jesus. Tune in as Kathryn introduces you to the source of Unstoppable Joy: the Jesus she knows. for more information on how to connect with Kathryn go to :https://www.unstoppable-joy.com/
