I Gave God My Grief, He Gave Me a Song | 1 Peter 5:7 with Kate Westwood

Oh hey! In this episode, Ash Couchman is joined by Kate Westwood to unpack 1 Peter 5:7 — “Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.” Kate opens up about a season in her life marked by burnout, depression, and disappointment with God. She shares how that time revealed her struggle with true vulnerability — not just with God, but with people around her. Together, Ash and Kate talk about what it really means to “cast your cares” on God when He feels distant, how to tell the difference between being transparent and being vulnerable, and why asking for help can be one of the most courageous things we do in our faith. Kate also gives us a glimpse into the exciting creative project she’s working on — writing music in collaboration with female worship leaders across Australia. Whether you’re in a season of peace or you’re just trying to keep your head above water, this conversation is full of honesty, hope, and encouragement to let others in and lean on God, even when it’s hard. Note, there are some heavier topics discussed in today's episode. Get Connected:Follow us on InstagramJoin the Facebook CommunityGot something to share?
