Why God Answers Prayers Differently

As we wrap up this week’s series on Starting Fresh with God, today’s episode focuses on one of the most powerful gifts God gives us: hope.

Without hope, life can feel heavy and uncertain. But with hope, we can face each day with courage, knowing God’s promises never fail. In today’s episode, Ken Robinson shares how to cultivate daily hope, not just during life's significant challenges, but also in the ordinary moments that make up our everyday routines.

Drawing from Lamentations 3:21–23 and Hebrews 6:19, Ken reminds us that biblical hope is not wishful thinking — it’s a firm confidence in God’s faithfulness. Hope becomes an anchor for our souls, steadying us when life's storms arise.

You’ll hear three practical ways to live with hope each day:

• Remember God’s promises in Scripture.
• Reflect on His past faithfulness in your life.
• Keep your eyes fixed on eternity.

When we see life through the lens of hope, even ordinary days take on new meaning. Instead of fear, we find faith. Instead of despair, we discover peace. Instead of giving up, we press on with confidence that God is at work.

If you’ve been feeling weighed down or discouraged, this episode will lift your perspective and fill you with the assurance that each new day is not just another 24 hours — it’s a fresh opportunity to walk with God in hope.
