    Jaye King: Identity, Healing & the God Who Never Leaves: Page 271

    What happens to a boy's heart when his father stands a few feet away in church every Sunday, but never really shows up at home? Singer and songwriter Jaye King grew up playing drums on the platform while his dad directed the music. They served in the same services. Created the same worship moments. But outside the church walls, his father wasn't consistently present in his life. That tension shaped how Jaye saw himself and how he saw God. In this hope-filled conversation, Jaye shares about wrestling skepticism, navigating father wounds, and the slow process of discovering that God doesn't leave the way people sometimes do. What unfolds is a story of identity, forgiveness, calling, and the hidden years that formed him long before the spotlight. Today, Jaye King is a singer and songwriter with Centricity Music, known for songs like Hard Places and Falling Into It. His music carries the very themes you'll hear in this episode- healing, hope, and a Father who stays.   Show Notes:   Website: https://www.jayeking.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jayekingmusic/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jayekingmusic  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JayeKingMusic

    Nigel Masenda: "...the more emotive I am, the more God surprises me." | Unfolding Short Stories

    "I've often felt I can be too much, but the more emotive I am, the more God surprises me." Growing up in a family and culture where men were often reserved, Nigel Massenda felt out of place for expressing his emotions so freely. But when his mother traveled abroad for a funeral and could not return for two long years, loneliness and unanswered prayers pushed him deeper into raw, honest faith. Through caring neighbors, silent prayers, and a steady hope, Nigel discovered that embracing vulnerability before God not only shapes our perspective but can transform our very lives.

    Jasmine Barr: "This may not be exactly what it means to be a Hebrew Israelite. I'm just telling my story." | Unfolding Short Stories

    As a Black Hebrew Israelite, Jasmine spent years trying not to mess up or break God's law, living under strict expectations. After long prison phone calls with the man who would become her husband, she began to see Jesus differently, not as a taskmaster but as Savior. This is her story of laying down a heavy yoke and finding rest in Jesus.

    Bart Millard (MercyMe): Grief, Identity, and Trusting Go Seasons: Page 269

    Faith Podcasts are made possible by your support. You can click here to give.  If you know the music of MercyMe, then you know the voice of Bart Millard. He's the songwriter behind "I Can Only Imagine"- written after watching his abusive father transform from a monster into a man that loved Jesus.  It is the best-selling Christian single of all time, with more than five million copies sold. With that kind of success, you might imagine Bart was living a life beyond anything he ever dreamed. But in 2004, the year "I Can Only Imagine" crossed over to mainstream radio and became a global smash, Bart and his wife Shannon were being gutted by one life-altering pain after another. Their son Sam was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes and that diagnosis came alongside multiple family losses and medical crises that all seemed to hit at once. While MercyMe's career was soaring, Bart was unraveling - slipping into depression, hiding behind touring, and struggling to hold it all together. A new film I Can Only Imagine 2, and book Even If - Trusting God Through the Fire tell Bart's story.      Show Notes:   Official Movie Website:  https://icanonlyimagine.com/  Even If book:  https://mercyme.org/products/even-if-trusting-god-through-the-fire-the-official-book-for-i-can-only-imagine-2  MercyMe website: https://mercyme.org/  Bart on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheBartMillard  Bart on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bartmillard/

    Dr. Henry Cloud: Trauma, Depression, and Faith- Why Healing Changes Everything: Page 268

    Faith Podcasts are made possible by your support. You can click here to give.    Dr. Henry Cloud is known as a leadership expert, clinical psychologist, and New York Times bestselling author of Boundaries. But before helping millions build healthier relationships, Henry had to face his own unhealed trauma and depression. In this episode of The Unfolding, Henry shares how early childhood trauma shaped his emotional and relational patterns, why depression became a turning point in his life, and how real healing required more than spiritual platitudes or performance-based faith. Through therapy, honest community centered on Jesus, and Scripture lived out in practice, Henry discovered freedom that transformed how he loves, leads, and relates to God. This conversation explores the intersection of faith and mental health, why "performing your way out of pain" doesn't work, and how God meets us not with formulas, but with His presence. Dr. Henry Cloud's newest book is To Know Him: A 90-Day Invitation to Come to God As You Are.  Show Notes:  Website: https://www.drcloud.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drhenrycloudofficial/  "To Know Him" Book: https://www.drcloud.com/books/to-know-him  "Why I Believe" Book:  https://www.amazon.com/Why-Believe-Psychologists-Thoughts-Suffering-ebook/dp/B0CK8C76LD  Website: https://www.boundaries.me/
