What does healing look like when life doesn't turn out the way you expected?

In this episode of For Such a Time As This, I sit down with my friend Ernest to talk about his journey through divorce, singleness, fatherhood, and finding restoration through God’s grace.

Ernest shares what it was like navigating singleness after divorce while raising two children, and how his perspective continued to evolve as his children grew into adulthood. We talk about the challenges of walking through a season you never planned for and learning to trust God with every chapter.

One of the biggest parts of Ernest’s story is learning the importance of counseling, community, and allowing others to walk alongside you. Growing up in a culture where men were often taught to “handle things” on their own, Ernest shares how God showed him that true strength isn’t found in hiding your struggles, it’s found in surrendering them to Him.

This conversation dives into breaking unhealthy beliefs, pursuing healing, finding support within the body of Christ, and recognizing that God never intended for us to walk through life alone.

Whether you’re navigating divorce, singleness, fatherhood, healing, or simply learning to let God work in areas you’ve always carried yourself, this episode is a reminder that vulnerability is not weakness, it’s an opportunity for God to bring restoration.
