Clay Jars & Golden Scars: A Story of Suffering and Restoration
Sometimes, life can shatter us... into a million pieces. And sometimes, we don't know how to rebuild our hearts, our minds, and our lives after certain events.But I know a God who is our great physician and our healer. He looks at our brokenness and is able to form something so beautiful.Today, let me tell you my story about an early miscarriage that took place after we had been told we had unexplained infertility. I'm going to tell you this story through the lens of Joel (a prophet in the Old Testament) to show you that God doesn't ignore our suffering. In fact, he has future blessing and restoration for us if only we would trust him. Maybe get the tissues for this episode, but I promise you that there is hope and celebration that followed the suffering. And I believe that blessing and restoration is in your future too.Connect with me on Instagram: @carryconfetti

Become the Hype Girl (or Hype Man) That Others Need
Have you ever wondered how some people can live in hopeful expectation and others live crippled by fear? Have you ever needed someone to remind you that your story isn't over yet? In today's episode, I want to tell you about one of my favourite women in the Bible. In the midst of the Exodus (when the Israelites left slavery in Egypt), Miriam was the hype girl everyone needed. She was someone who expected God to come through for them. She was the one that started a dance party on the edge of the Red Sea.Let's take a look at her story and discover why we just might need a tambourine in our bag :) Connect with me on Instagram: @carryconfetti

How Pain Led to a Party in My Pocket
Hey y'all! I'm so glad you're here for my very first podcast episode. This is a dream finally becoming a reality, and I truly hope it becomes a weekly blessing to your life. I hope that the stories shared within these episodes will encourage you, challenge you, and inspire you to carry confetti (a little party in your pocket) for yourself and others in your world. Have you ever longed for something? Perhaps there was a prayer request that you didn't know if it would ever get answered? Maybe you felt like you were left behind while everyone else was moving forward to a new stage in life? Are you reading this and thinking that the confetti seems to be for everyone else, but it doesn't seem to be for you? In my introduction episode, I tell you about my infertility journey and what led to me creating a life motto right before my 30th birthday a few years ago. A motto inspired by a scripture in the Bible. A motto that is now the name of this podcast.This motto isn't just for me. I pray that it could one day become yours, too.Share this episode with your friends who need to hear this message, and please subscribe to the podcast channel wherever you're listening!Much love,Darcie Connect with me on Instagram: @carryconfetti

A podcast to help you discover how to cultivate a life of hopeful expectation and daily celebration. I’m Darcie Frost, an Oklahoma girl now living in New Zealand and leading a church with my husband (and our two toddlers in tow). Through weekly episodes released every Monday, I’ll be exploring Christian theology and studies in psychology to better understand the powerful effects of gratitude and hope. No matter what season of life you are in, we could all benefit from a bit more joy infused into those ordinary, everyday moments. I’ll be tackling questions like: How do I keep believing after so many setbacks? Why hasn’t God answered my prayer yet? How do you know God is good and on your side? How do I find the strength to celebrate others, while walking through grief, disappointment, and pain? What’s the difference between happiness and joy?Subscribe to the show on your favorite podcast app, so you don't miss a single episode!
