    Walking Through The Wilderness Of Faith With Dustin Kleinschmidt

    Let me know what you think of this episode? What if the place you’re trying to escape is the place God is using to form you? Pastor, author, and coach Dustin Kleinschmidt joins us to candidly unpack burnout, depression, leadership wounds, and the surprising joy that can surface when we stop treating life like a problem to solve. Dustin shares how stepping down from a crisis-ridden church didn’t end his pain—it exposed his expectations and led him into a deeper, steadier trust. Drawing from the Exodus story, he lays out the Wilderness Way: rescued from slavery, promised restoration, and shaped in the in‑between where beauty and brokenness live side by side. We talk through what wilderness can look like—grief that lingers, a diagnosis that upends plans, a child in chaos, or a church split that shatters trust—and why quick fixes often keep us stuck. Dustin describes the hard won practices that helped him rebuild: counseling, confession, letting pressure out early, and inviting his wife to be an advocate in the fight against secrecy and shame. He also explains his coaching model for leaders that integrates spiritual health, emotional resilience, relational honesty, and organizational clarity, because strategy without soul burns people out and feelings without structure stall change. If your faith feels frayed, you’ll find language, hope, and a path forward. Expect practical wisdom, not platitudes: how to worship honestly in pain, how to spot small daily joys without denying reality, and how to hold outcomes with open hands while trusting the God who stays. Grab Dustin’s book The Wilderness Way on Amazon, explore the companion workbook, and share this episode with someone who needs permission to be honest and keep going. If this conversation helped you, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend who’s walking through their own wilderness. Your story might be the whisper someone needs today.

    How Chronic Illness, Grief, And Faith Shaped A New Calling

Support the Podcast. https://buymeacoffee.com/dorseyross Please subscribe to the show, on your favorite podcast platforms, and you can get the latest episodes notifications.   https://www.dorseyrossshow.com/follow/ What if the ground never stops moving and yet your soul finds a steadier place to stand? That’s the tension Lara Silverman lives with every day as a Stanford-trained attorney turned bestselling author and musician whose rare neurological condition keeps the world spinning even while she’s still. We sit down with Lara to explore how chronic illness, career loss, and the death of her husband became the crucible where faith deepened, identity shifted, and joy returned in surprising forms. Lara shares the origin of her suffering—an abrupt collapse two weeks into her dream role as a federal prosecutor—and the decade-long journey that followed: misdiagnoses, hospitalizations, and years bedridden. She opens up about the bedside visits from a church acquaintance newly battling terminal cancer, the theology of suffering he brought with him, and the love that grew between them against all odds. Their marriage, brief and beautiful, reframed blessing, exposed the hollowness of achievement-based worth, and reoriented Lara around a gospel that trades prosperity promises for a cross-shaped hope. This conversation moves beyond platitudes. We wrestle with the why behind suffering, how Scripture becomes a lifeline, and what it really means to hold eternity in view when the present is full of loss. Lara also reveals the creative paths that helped her heal—recording jazz from the edge of her bed, producing an original song about missing “normal,” and crafting viral Armenian comedy skits that helped her community laugh again. She discusses writing her memoir as a love story forged in trial, and a field guide for anyone navigating grief, disability, or chronic pain. If you’ve ever wondered where God is in the dark, how to find purpose when plans shatter, or how joy can coexist with tears, Lara’s story offers honest answers and hard-won hope.
