About this episode
As we kick off Season 7 of Holly’s Highlights, we’re starting the new year with a powerful and timely conversation on what it truly means to advance amidst adversity.
In this special Season 7, Episode 1, Holly shares with us a recent sermon from her dad, Dr. Jim Harding — a retired Senior Pastor of over 30 years, Air Force veteran, and lifelong servant leader—to share timeless wisdom for navigating challenges with faith, resilience, and purpose. Drawing from decades of ministry, leadership, and life experience, he delivers an encouraging message that speaks directly to anyone entering a new year with hope, questions, or uncertainty.
At the heart of this episode are the Five P’s that help us move forward when life feels difficult:
- Prayer — anchoring ourselves in God before taking our next step
- Promises — standing firm on what God has spoken
- Patience — trusting the process when progress feels slow
- Perseverance — continuing forward even when the road is hard
- Praise — choosing gratitude and worship in every season
Whether you’re leading in your home, workplace, church, or community—or simply seeking to live with greater intention—this episode will encourage you to start the year grounded in faith, strengthened by resilience, and focused on your purpose.
If you’re looking for clarity, encouragement, and practical spiritual leadership to help you start strong and keep going, this conversation will meet you right where you are.
✨ Press play, be encouraged, and let’s begin this new season together.
