Rachel Wojo is my guest once again, and today we shift from her story of parenting her daughter Taylor through a terminal illness to the deeper spiritual lessons that followed her death—lessons about grief, surrender, and the hard, holy work of prayer when God's answer is “no.”Rachel shares the story behind her latest book, Desperate Prayers, and talks honestly about wrestling with God, receiving painful judgment from others, and redefining what healing really means. We also explore how prayer connects us to God in the midst of spiritual warfare and how—even when words fail—God hears the cries of our hearts.Rachel's story offers not only honest insight but deep encouragement for those walking through grief. Whether you're wrestling with God, struggling to pray, or simply trying to make it through the day, I believe her words will meet you where you are.Listen to the first half of our conversation HERE.  Connect with Rachel:

Finding Peace in Chaos: How Desperate Prayers Anchor Us in Life's Toughest Moments Life isn't always predictable—or easy. At some point, we all face moments that shake us: a health crisis, a broken relationship, financial uncertainty, or the quiet weight of feeling lost. In those moments, hope can feel distant. But there's a powerful tool available to every person of faith—desperate prayer. The Power of Prayer Desperate prayers are more than just words; they are a conversation with God, a way to seek comfort and find answers. Prayer is essential for navigating life's toughest moments and finding solace, strength, and direction. By speaking to God, you can find the fortitude to face each day with hope and purpose. From Breakdown to Breakthrough: Stories of Real Transformation Through Desperate Prayer Many people share that it wasn't until they hit their lowest point that they truly connected with God. Whether they were praying over a sick child, facing a job loss, or feeling spiritually empty, desperate prayers marked a turning point. But the outcome wasn't always what they asked for—it was often something deeper: Peace in the middle of the storm A sense of being seen and known A renewed understanding that God's plan may look different, but it's always rooted in love Trust grows in those places. And over time, many realize that God wasn't distant; He was working all along. Prayer is a Two-Way Conversation: Are You Listening? Most people pray expecting answers—but few pause to listen. Desperate prayer doesn't end when the talking stops. It continues in quiet reflection, in Scripture, in nature, and even in the people around you. Sometimes, God's answers come gently: through a feeling of peace, a conversation you weren't expecting, or an idea that brings surprising clarity.

Have you ever prayed and felt like it didn't matter that you prayed or not? Have you wondered if prayer was just a nice thing to make you feel better perhaps, but really didn't matter in the long run? If you've ever tried praying and then given up because it doesn't feel like God is listening nor answering, today's podcast is for you. Speaker, author, podcaster, Rachel Wojo is with us today to talk about her latest book, Desperate Prayers: Embracing the Power of Prayer in Life's Darkest Moments. Rachel and her husband Matt are the parents of 6 children, 2 in heaven. They've known sorrow and have traveled this journey of prayer more than most. Rachel  is offering a free copy of her book all this week. I've read it and highly recommend! Some gems from our conversation: Praying has less to do with the right words, and much more to do with the posture of our heart. Praying with surrender not only gives us a good perspective on our future, but grants us a fresh appreciation for our present, no matter how we see our prayers being answered the way we'd like them to be. We can't see how God is working when we pray, but the more we pray, the deeper our relationship with him goes. Do we pray to get our prayers answered "our way" or do we pray to get to know God better and deeper? If we pray for God to show up, he often shows off in surprising and creative ways—we just need to be looking for him. We can stiff-arm God when we turn from him rather than going to him in our desperation, keeping our souls from the peace and intimacy he so earnestly desires for us.    Rachel mentioned a free prayer class you can find HERE: How To Be A Prayer Warrior For Your Family In Dark Times Also, 10 Prayers to Calm Your Heart.
