What to Do When You’re Frustrated: 4 Triggers & Biblical Solutions with Donna Jones

Frustration. We all experience it; none of us like it. But what if frustration isn’t a sin but a signal? In this episode, we take a fresh look at frustration, especially during summer’s messy, together-all-the-time moments, when frustration can reach new heights. I’ll walk you through the four main triggers (starting with blocked goals!) and show you how to turn those tense moments into opportunities for growth, grace, and deeper connection.

You’ll learn how empathy, “do-overs,” and three powerful questions can help shift communication in your home or relationships from reactive to redemptive. Mistakes don’t have to define us—they can shape us. Frustration doesn't have to have the final say in our life.

This episode combines biblical truth with real-life insight to help you handle frustration with wisdom, humility, and peace. Let’s grow together this summer—one grace-filled moment at a time.
