E193: Day 13 When You're Walking Away From Your Faith | The Activated Disciple

Day 13: When You're Walking Away From Your Faith — The Emmaus Road and the God Who Catches Up | The Activated DiscipleHave you ever been so disappointed by what God did not do that you started walking the other way? On Day 13 of The Activated Disciple, we walk down a long, dusty road outside Jerusalem with two heartbroken disciples who are leaving town. They had hoped Jesus was the One. They had pinned their dreams on Him. And now He is dead — and the rumors of resurrection feel like cruel jokes. So they put their heads down and start walking away from the city, away from the news, away from the community. And a Stranger catches up to them. This Christian daily devotional podcast episode is for every believer in the middle of disappointment with God. Every believer in deconstruction. Every soul whose faith has felt thin lately because the prayer was not answered, the diagnosis was not reversed, the marriage did not heal, the church hurt you, or the dream died. We will uncover the Greek phrase kaiomenē en hēmin (καιομένη ἐν ἡμῖν) — "burning within us" — from Luke 24:32, and discover the moment two grieving disciples realized Jesus had been with them on the road the entire time, hidden in plain sight. If you have been struggling with doubt, walking away from church, or wondering where Jesus has been in your hardest season — this episode will catch up to you on your own road.Scripture: Luke 24:13–35 Ancient Word: kaiomenē (καιομένη) — burning, kindled, set ablaze (the heart on the Emmaus road) https://holyshiftmedia.comroad to Emmaus meaning, walking away from faith, disappointment with God, deconstruction Christianity, when God lets you down, hearts burning within us, Cleopas Emmaus, Jesus on the Emmaus road, faith crisis, doubt as a Christian, when prayers are not answered, hidden in plain sight, Christian daily devotional podcast, Holy Shift Devotionals, Desiree Day podcast, Activated Disciple series
