Faith

Holding on Through Disappointment

When the Answer Hasn’t Come Drea’s Couch Podcast

What happens when you’ve prayed, believed, and waited — and the answer still hasn’t come? This episode is for anyone carrying a disappointment they haven’t found language for.

Drea walks through what Scripture actually says about unanswered prayer, why lament is not a failure of faith, and the quiet difference between feeling disappointed by God and being abandoned by Him.

In this episode:

  • Langston Hughes, Proverbs 13:12, and the weight of deferred hope

  • Why nearly 40% of the Psalms are laments — and what that means for you

  • The difference between disappointment and abandonment

  • What Job got right that his friends got wrong

  • Three honest things to do when you’re still waiting

Scriptures referenced: Proverbs 13:12 · Psalm 13 · Psalm 22 · Psalm 88 · Job 42:7 · Romans 8:28 · 2 Corinthians 12:9 (all KJV)
