Where was God?
Where Was God? is a Christian podcast about real people, real stories, and real experiences with God. Hosted by Melissa Petersen, the show explores answered prayers, miracles, provision, healing, redemption, forgiveness, coming to faith, and moments when God moved in unexpected ways. We’ll also talk about loss, waiting, uncertainty, and seasons when God seemed absent. Through honest conversations, personal stories, and Scripture, we’ll ask: Where was God? Sometimes we see Him immediately. Sometimes we only see Him when we look back. And sometimes, God is still writing the story.

Episode 2: Fear Not, For I Am With You — Dr. Ana Rosa's Story of Faith
What happens when you pray for a miracle, but the miracle you hoped for never comes?
In Episode 2 of Where Was God?, host Melissa Petersen sits down with Dr. Ana Rosa for a deeply personal conversation about faith, grief, gratitude, and finding God in life's most painful moments.
After losing her husband to cancer, Ana Rosa struggled with unanswered prayers and a shaken faith. But through her grief, she began recognizing God's presence in ways she never imagined.
Together, we explore Isaiah 41:10, “Fear not, for I am with you,” and Psalm 121, which Ana Rosa prays every day.
Sometimes the miracle isn't what we prayed for. Sometimes it's discovering that God was with us all along.

Episode 1: Faith Like a Child — I Prayed and the Van Started | Mariella’s Story
What can an 8-year-old teach us about faith?
When the family van wouldn’t start and they were already running late for school, Mariella had a simple thought: Jesus would answer this for me. She prayed, asking Jesus to help the van start—and the very next time her dad tried it, the van started. Pasted text Pasted text
In the very first episode of Where Was God?, Melissa Petersen sits down with her 8-year-old daughter, Mariella, to hear the story in her own words and talk about the simple faith of a child.
Inspired by Matthew 17:20 and faith as small as a mustard seed, this episode is a reminder that we don’t always have to understand everything before we pray.
Maybe faith that moves mountains doesn’t always start with a mountain. Sometimes it starts with a van that won’t start.
