The Lie That Faith Gets Easier (and Mature Christians Don’t Struggle) | with Kristen LaValley

from Trade a Lie for a Truth · host heidileeanderson

Ever found yourself thinking, ‘I’ve followed Jesus for years—why does this still feel hard?’ If that question has crossed your mind, you’re not alone. In today’s episode, I’m joined by Kristen LaValley, author of Growing Up Saved, who shares how saying the sinner’s prayer at a young age eventually led to deeper questions, seasons where faith felt heavy, and the guilt grew stronger. Yet Kristen gently reminds us we can bring our real questions to a God who isn’t intimidated by them, but holds all the answers. As we do, we'll find how He uses it to deepen our roots in Him even further. Together, let's learn how to shift from something to prove to something simply received, how to sit with questions without fearing them, and what it looks like to keep trusting God when you don’t have all the answers. God isn’t asking you to have it all figured out—just to keep walking with Him, one honest, faithful step at a time.   Connect with Kristen LaValley: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristen.lavalley Website: https://www.kristenlavalley.com/ Book, Growing Up Saved: https://rstyle.me/+bowETlUF86x1H4hjQvCeYw   Connect with Heidi Lee Anderson: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heidileeanderson/ 100-Day Devotional, All In, All Yours: https://rstyle.me/+11Ii1owgccFkGPU0t1uz3w Passion Week Family Devotional: https://heidileeandersonministries.com/travelpassionweek
