Carry Confetti
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?

Gimme That Bison Boldness
Welcome to Episode 5, the final part of these introduction episodes that give you more insight into my story and what has led up to the moment of launching this podcast.
Episode 4 covered Part 1 of Elijah the prophet's story, and today I'm bringing you Part 2. Sometimes, after we have a mountain peak moment or we receive a miracle or an answer to prayer, we can still find ourselves facing challenges.
You can be living in an answered prayer and still be exhausted.
You can be living in an answered prayer and still wrestle with God.
You can be living in an answered prayer and face new battles.
I was living with my promised "rain" (my son) while I walked through a stormy pregnancy with daughter. It was an entirely new emotional battle I had never fought before, but God was able to bring me strength in the middle of the storm. God was able to bring me to the other side of the storm.
Most importantly, God never left me alone in that storm.
I pray that this episode reminds you that you, too, are not alone. The Lord of heaven's armies can bring you strength, protection, and resilience if you let him.
He is the anchor for our hopeful expectation and our daily celebration.
