Getting Through What You Never Asked For

What do you do when the bottom drops out and life breaks in ways you never imagined?

We have walked that road, and through our personal story of loss, we’ve discovered the sustaining power of God’s presence.

In this podcast, we offer heartfelt conversations, Scripture-based encouragement, and the kind of hope that only comes from experience. Whether you’re grieving, struggling, or searching for peace in the middle of chaos, this space is for you.

The Story Behind Her Praise: Two Tragedies, One Faithful God

Episode 65

Charlie and Jill welcome Diana Kannady, author of The Story Behind My Praise, to share her remarkable journey through unimaginable loss and God’s sustaining grace. After losing her first love to murder while pregnant, and years later losing her husband unexpectedly on one of the most important days of her daughter’s life, Diana shares how choosing joy, releasing her disappointment with God, and embracing His presence carried her through profound grief. Together, they remind listeners that healing isn’t rushed, honest questions don’t threaten faith, and God is able to redeem even the deepest heartbreaks.
