Have you ever found yourself journeying down the path of life, when suddenly you’re unexpectedly halted as a roadblock appears out of nowhere? Most of us can relate and are familiar with encountering obstacles, but often, those unexpected issues tend to stop us in our tracks, when God has called us to move forward. How do we muster up the strength to continue pressing ahead?



Today, I’m chatting with Hannah Brencher about how to fight for your life and fight through the “roadblocks” of your life. “Roadblocks” are the parts of life inside of you and outside of you that present paralyzing fears, self-doubt, discouragement, loss, or even circumstances, that, if left to fester without being addressed, may hold you “captive” on your journey. Remember that in the midst of your struggle, God has a vision for your life and can still use you for His glory, so know that you are not in this fight alone. However, you cannot “camp out” in your struggle; God wants you to remain in the fight to strive and push forward toward all that He has for you – but what strategies can we practice to help us in the fight?



Hannah and I discuss practical actions steps that will help you to establish and maintain a “rhythm of life” while sustaining your faith. We encourage you to endure, or just remain in existence, while engaging with a consistent relationship with the Most High God.


Feel like you have no more “fight” left in you? As long as God gives you breath, He will equip you with His word and His strength, to help propel you forward. No matter what you are facing and no matter how difficult it might be for you to see your way through, I’m here to tell you that you do have fight left in you. It just must be accessed. And my conversation with Hannah is just the thing to get you going.
