In this powerful and deeply relatable episode of the Ministry Wives podcast, host Amy Petersen sits down with ministry wife, author, and speaker Rachel Lovingood to talk about the tension we so often feel between knowing what God is asking—and actually stepping out in obedience.

For many ministry wives, the struggle isn’t whether God is calling—it’s navigating the fear, discomfort, and uncertainty that inevitably come with saying yes.

If you’ve ever thought, “I know I should step out in faith, but…”—then this conversation is for you.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• What’s really happening beneath your hesitation, fear, or resistance
• How to step into new seasons, transitions, and unknown spaces with faith
• Practical ways to initiate friendships and build relationships in new environments
• Why not every step of faith leads to visible results (and why that still matters)
• And more!
