In this episode of the Faith Conversations Podcast, Whitney Howell shares the deeply personal story of how God restored and revived her faith. Through seasons of searching, uncertainty, and spiritual questions, Whitney experienced what she describes as the 'resurrection' of her faith—a renewed relationship with God that transformed the direction of her life.
Looking back, Whitney can see how God was patiently pursuing her even when she didn’t recognize it at the time. Through people, circumstances, and moments of reflection, the Lord was guiding her heart and drawing her back into a relationship with Him.
Her story is a powerful reminder that God never stops pursuing us. Even when faith feels distant, uncertain, or lost, He is still working—calling us back to Himself with grace, love, and patience.
Whitney’s journey offers encouragement to anyone who feels spiritually dry, discouraged, or unsure where they stand with God. The resurrection of faith is possible, and God is always ready to welcome us home.
