In this powerful episode of The Redeemed Podcast, host Lauren Burns dives deep into what it really means to walk the narrow path and trust God’s timing when life feels uncertain.

Through the lens of John 15 — the image of God as the gardener and Jesus as the vine — Lauren explores how spiritual pruning is often God’s way of preparing us for greater purpose. She shares personal stories of surrender, waiting, and faith through seasons of loss, transition, and unexpected change.

Lauren reminds listeners that pruning isn’t punishment — it’s preparation. When God removes distractions, relationships, or habits that no longer serve our growth, He’s creating space for something new and fruitful to flourish.

You’ll hear:

  • Why God allows pruning seasons in our lives
  •  How to trust His timing when the waiting feels long
  •  Practical ways to stay rooted in Scripture and peace
  •  A closing prayer of encouragement for those walking through their own “in-between” season

If you’re struggling to see God’s hand in your waiting or wondering why certain doors have closed, this episode will remind you: you’re not being buried — you’re being planted. 🌱

🎧 Listen now and be encouraged to embrace your pruning season, trust His process, and believe that your breakthrough is coming.
