    Rooted In Love with Shayne (‪@KingShayne93) | Rooted with Mar

    In this episode of Rooted, Shayne shares his powerful testimony — from childhood trauma and a grandmother's faith, through ridicule, betrayal, and church hurt, into years of partying, chasing a music dream, and eventually dealing drugs. He opens up about the depression, violence, and the night God interrupted a suicide plan, then walks us through the phone call to his brother, surrendering to God, and the prayer gathering where radical repentance met God's love face-to-face. If you're wrestling with your past or wondering whether restoration is really possible, this conversation is for you.  Chapters: 0:00 — Content warning and welcome to Rooted 1:01 — What did God do this week?
