When the Zebra Is Real: Trusting God in Worst-Case Moments

from Deep Water - New Mercies · host Joe Strecker Productions

We had other plans for this episode, but deep water showed up, and we followed it. It started with a small spot on the skin and spiraled into the age-old spiral—what if it’s worst-case? Maybe you know that spiral too. Jackie and Christi wrestle with fear, faith, and the temptation to always look for the zebra when it might just be a horse. But what happens when it is a zebra? From medical scares to life’s big unknowns, this episode dives into how we trust God in the not-yets, the what-ifs, and the hard truths. By His stripes, we are healed—even on the back of a zebra. Saddle up. Jesus is with us in it all.
