    My 16 Year Old Should Have Died That Night - A Warrior Mom's Story | Jenn Robb | 086

    Jenn Robb's 16-year-old daughter should have died that night. The doctor said there was no reason she should be alive. This Christian testimony with author and nurse practitioner, Jenn Robb, is for every parent praying for a teen in crisis. When Jenn's daughter Chloe (16) was found unresponsive on April 4th, doctors told her Chloe's blood alcohol level was four times the lethal limit. What happened next changed Jenn's faith forever. In the shower afterward, while bathing her daughter, Jenn heard God say: "As much as you love her, I love her more. You have to surrender her to me." That moment of surrender to God became the foundation of her book Warrior Mom Rising and her mission to help other parents advocate, pray, and find hope in the middle of teen anxiety, depression, self-harm, and mental health battles. In this episode of Coincidence or God? (formerly When You Look) we discuss: • What Chloe faced from age 12 to 16 — anxiety, depression, assault, and a breaking point no parent expects • The afternoon her brother found her and the doctor's words no mom wants to hear • Why parental advocacy in hospitals and schools matters more than you think • How to surrender without giving up — faith, boundaries, and fighting for your child Jenn Robb is the author of Warrior Mom Rising, nurse practitioner in women's health, and coach for moms at https://warriormomcoach.net/ Follow her on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/warriormom_jennrobb/ Book available on Amazon https://a.co/d/02ZfaDZw If this story encouraged you, subscribe to Coincidence or God? for real-life stories that remind you God is real, God is alive, and God is still changing lives every day. #coincidenceorgod #christiantestimony #faithstory #testimony #inspiration #godsfaithfulness Coincidence or God?

    I Put A Gun in My Mouth, Pulled the Trigger, & It Didn't Go Off | Matthew Headden | 085

    He put a .45 in his mouth and pulled the trigger — and by God's grace, it didn't go off. Matthew Headden spent over two decades trapped in alcohol, cocaine, meth and nicotine addiction. He describes himself as rebellious, arrogant and self-centered, drinking 30-40-50 drinks at a time, using 2 1/2 eight balls a week, and once waking up on a plane to Cancun with no memory of how he got there. Five years before his surrender, at his lowest point, Matthew put his 1911 .45 in his mouth. "I can still taste that steel," he says. He pulled the trigger — and it didn't fire. Three and a half years ago, after another weekend lost to drinking, he was driving back to Columbia, SC at 4:15 AM listening to "Offering" by Third Day and prayed, "God, I know I have a problem... if you would give me a sign, that'd be really rad." Five hours later his attorney called about a 3-year-old DUI case where he was "super duper guilty" — and said, "your case is dismissed." Matthew hit his knees in an alleyway and said, "I surrender. I'm Yours. Never again." He hasn't touched alcohol or cocaine since — no meetings, no program. Today Matthew leads Temple Keepers with his wife Leah, helping Christians live disciplined lives through movement, nutrition, sleep and stress — because "we don't have an obesity epidemic in the church, we have a stewardship epidemic."

    17 & Pregnant With No Job, No Money... But One God | Shara Goswick | 084

    17 and pregnant! Shara Goswick was the good girl — in church every week, the one everybody trusted. Then she became a pregnant teenager with no job, no money, and no plan other than keeping her baby. The rest of her story includes being continually met with grace instead of gossip and how that was God showing up in her life! This episode of Coincidence or God? (formerly When You Look) is filled with incredible outcomes. Shara shares about a phone call to a landlord, a job in Big Spring, Texas, and a name that could not have been an accident. She shares about the prayer list she wrote on a piece of paper she'd hide when company came over: four bedrooms, a two-car garage, a utility room, a fenced backyard, $80,000 — and Psalm 37:4 written at the top. God answered it with seven bedrooms, four bathrooms, and $67,000. "God was working out the details before we even met," she says.

    I Should Be Dead: The 100+ MPH Crash That Proved God Is Real | Wade Fransson | 081

    At 100+ MPH, Wade Fransson's car went THROUGH a freeway light pole — and the pole was never touched. He should have died at 19. Instead, he walked around that pole, looked at the impossible evidence, and gave his life to the God he'd been running from. This is a real near death experience testimony about a car crash that changed his life. Kidnapped to Sweden by his father at 9, raised inside a rigid church, hooked on drugs and alcohol by 19 — Wade's life was on a collision course. Then one 100+ mph night on an Alaskan highway changed everything: the light pole between his tire tracks that his car passed through untouched. 👤 ABOUT WADE FRANSSON Wade is the author of "The People of the Sign," "The Hardness of the Heart," and "The Rod of Iron" — autobiographical books available on Amazon. He hosts the "Created in the Image of God" podcast and publishes on Substack.
