[Ep 188] When Fear Keeps Us Quiet

from Journal Gently: Healing with God through quiet reflection, honest conversations, and gentle journaling · host Kari Bartkus, Spiritual Director for Christian Women

Have you ever let fear keep you quiet, hesitant to use a gift you know God has placed inside you?  In this episode, Kari unpacks a familiar verse, 2 Timothy 1:7, and discovers it means something deeper than we often realize. It's not just about overcoming fear in general—it's about refusing to let fear silence the gifts God has given us. Through Paul's letter to Timothy, we're reminded that God calls us to fan into flame the gifts already within us, using them with power, love, and self-discipline. If you've been feeling restless or discouraged, this gentle reflection will help you rekindle your confidence in what God has entrusted to you.   >> Get your free ticket to Make the Move, a live online conference happening November 20 to help you discern God's direction in your business or ministry. https://prayforyourbusiness.com   RELATED EPISODES: ·       Episode 117: Running Away From God: A Devotional Bible Study on Jonah 1 ·       Episode 122: Feeling Anxious?
