Part Three: Faith in the Fracture
When life feels like a mountain too steep to climb, it’s easy to wish for God to move the mountain out of the way. I’ve been there staring at obstacles that seem impossible, praying for a clear path, a sign, or a miracle.

Finding Strength in Setbacks: How Adversity Becomes Your Greatest Teacher
Sometimes life doesn’t just slow you down, it drops you flat. It interrupts your rhythm, snatches the plan from your hands, and dares you to find meaning in the middle of the mess. Setbacks come disguised as delays, disappointments, or detours. They are not punishment but permission—to pause, to see, to rebuild. When things don’t go as planned, it’s not always because you did something wrong. Sometimes, it’s because you were meant to discover something right about yourself th
