Have you ever been in a season where everything seems to hit at once?

One thing after another… back-to-back situations… and you’re left wondering:

“Is this God? Is this the enemy? Or did I do something wrong?”

In this episode of Life Been Lifing – Now What?, Rhine and Tiffany Ruffner have an honest conversation about seasons of testing — what they actually are, what the Bible says about them, and how to walk through them with clarity and faith.

Many believers are quick to blame the enemy for every hardship, but not every difficult season is spiritual attack. Sometimes God is growing us, pruning us, and drawing us into deeper relationship with Him.

In this episode, we discuss:

• What a season of testing really feels like

• Why everything can seem to happen all at once

• The difference between spiritual attack and spiritual growth

• How to develop discernment in difficult seasons

• Why God allows testing (and how it builds intimacy)

• The role of discipline, prayer, and relationship with God

• Practical ways to stay grounded when life feels overwhelming

If life has been lifing lately, this episode will help you shift your perspective and recognize what God may be doing in your season.
