Healer & Hope Giver: A Christian Podcast on Healing, Faith & Identity
Healer & Hope Giver: A Christian Podcast on Healing, Faith & Identity
There are seasons when life looks steady on the outside but feels heavy on the inside.
This Christian podcast is a space for honest conversations about healing, faith, grief, identity, spiritual growth, and the quiet work God does in the middle of real life.
Hosted by author and speaker Kim Hawkins, Healer & Hope Giver: Practicing Out Loud explores what it means to live from who God says you are — not from pressure, performance, or old narratives that no longer fit.
Each week you’ll find:
• Long-form episodes on healing and growth in everyday life
• Devotional episodes rooted in Scripture with real-life application
• Gentle encouragement for anyone navigating grief, change, leadership, identity shifts, or spiritual formation
If you’ve ever felt:
– like you’re the steady one everyone leans on
– like healing is happening but still unfolding
– like faith is real but complicated
– or like you’re carrying more than you can explain
You are not alone.
This is a faith-based podcast for those who want depth, not noise. For those who love God but are still becoming. For those learning to loosen their grip and live with open hands.
New episodes release every Monday (long-form) and Thursday (devotional).

You don’t have to rush your healing.
You just have to stay.

Devotional 11: When Grief Waits Until Life Feels Steady
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Grief doesn’t always arrive when loss first happens.
Sometimes it waits — until life feels steadier, until survival mode eases, until there is finally space to feel what couldn’t be felt before. And when grief surfaces later, it can feel confusing, disorienting, or even discouraging.
In this Scripture-anchored devotional, we explore the gentleness of a God who does not rush grief or measure it by timing. Drawing from Psalm 34, Psalm 56, and Lamentations 3, this episode offers a quiet place to land for anyone who feels sorrow lingering, resurfacing, or showing up later than expected.
This devotional is not about fixing grief or explaining its timeline. It’s about learning to stay — trusting that God’s nearness is steady, His compassion is abundant, and His presence does not thin with time.
If grief feels close right now — loudly or quietly — you are not behind. You are not failing. And you are not alone.
