23. What God Is Really Like: How His Character Brings Peace to Anxious Moms

Do you know God is good in your head, but still struggle to believe it in a hard season? Have grief, motherhood anxiety, or painful circumstances ever made God feel distant, silent, or confusing? Are you longing to trust God more deeply and find peace by understanding His true character? When anxiety gets loud, it can distort more than your thoughts about life — it can distort your view of God. In this episode, Rachel shares a deeply personal story of losing her sister unexpectedly at 19 and how that season challenged everything she thought she knew about God’s goodness. You’ll hear how pain, grief, fear, and anxiety can cause us to interpret God through our emotions instead of through Scripture — and why knowing the character of God is so important for Christian moms who want to walk in peace. Rachel also unpacks several key attributes of God that bring comfort in anxious seasons, including His compassion, sovereignty, unchanging nature, holiness, and goodness. If you’ve ever wondered, “Why does God feel far?” or “How do I trust God when life hurts?” this conversation will help you renew your mind with biblical truth and remember who God really is. If you are an anxious Christian mom who wants to grow closer to God, trust Him more in motherhood, and stop letting fear define your thoughts, this one is for you.
