Finding Light in Life's Darkest Moments
Losing a job can be one of life's most jarring experiences, but it can also be a catalyst for profound personal growth. Join me on my journey through faith and resilience, where I recount the struggle of finding purpose beyond my professional identity. With scriptures as my guide and the unwavering support of my church community, I discovered new beginnings in unexpected places, including a fulfilling new job and an engagement to Kimmy Shirley, our associate producer and spiritual advisor. This episode is a testament to the idea that God's faithfulness is unwavering, and that even the darkest trials can lead to brighter opportunities.
How often do we view waiting as an exercise in futility? By examining stories from scriptures like Psalms and James, we challenge the modern narrative that impatience is a virtue and instead highlight patience as a powerful virtue. Through reflections on figures such as Noah, Abraham, and Moses, we explore how patience is not just a passive state but a fertile ground for spiritual growth. Discover why virtues like patience, kindness, and gentleness are not signs of weakness but of true strength. Let us guide you in seeing how delays can align with God's broader plans, leading to outcomes greater than we could ever imagine.
Still Standing: Living After the Silence, the Storm, and the Shattered Heart is the powerful second book in the Standing Series. Building on the best-selling Struggle to Standing, this new release guides you through life after heartbreak with hope, healing, and faith. Now available on Amazon in paperback, hardcover.
