Where Do You Find Your Security?

May 20, 2025

Are you searching for something solid to hold onto when life feels uncertain? In a world where finances fluctuate, relationships disappoint, and the future seems unpredictable, we all crave a sense of security. But what if the things we cling to can’t truly keep us safe? In this episode of Candid Conversations, Jonathan Youssef explores the universal longing for security through the lens of one of Scripture’s most moving stories, the journey of Ruth. Drawing wisdom from Ruth chapter 2, Jonathan invites you to consider: Where are you placing your trust? What do you run to when life feels shaky? Could there be a deeper, unshakeable refuge you’re missing? You’ll hear how Ruth, a foreigner with nothing left to lose, risked everything to care for her mother-in-law, and how her faith led her straight into God’s providence. Discover how God’s invisible hand works even in your hardest seasons, providing protection, provision, and hope in unexpected ways. Whether you feel bitter and empty like Naomi, vulnerable and courageous like Ruth, or in a position to bless like Boaz, this episode will encourage you to find your true security, not in what you can build or protect, but under the loving wing of the God who sees you. Listen now and rediscover the only place of lasting security. Resources & Links: 🔗 Learn more at LTW.org/Candid. Social Media: Facebook: @candidpod Instagram: @candidpod Twitter: @thecandidpod
