68. ?Questioning Faith - Is it Real? with Cartier Cole

03/03/24 • 28 min

-Have you ever found yourself at a crossroads between the familiar faith of your upbringing and the uncharted waters of your personal beliefs? As a pastor's daughter, Cartier grew up in church. Her story is a testament to the courage it takes to step back, question, and seek a faith that is not just inherited but earnestly owned.

❓“My parents gave me the space to ask questions - no matter what they were.”

❓“I would encourage you to figure out what questions you have. That helps you process & decide some things.”

-We also touch on the beauty of discipleship through unexpected friendships —a profound reminder that the journey of faith can be a shared one, full of kindness and mutual growth.
—Join us as we navigate the complexities of faith, self-discovery, and the importance of asking the hard questions that refine our beliefs and relationship with Jesus.

For Cartier’s husband’s story:

67. Defying Odds in Life and Health: A Tale of Miracles & Hope with Kelly Asbell

When life throws an insurmountable challenge in your path, how do you respond?
Kelly, our extraordinary guest, is a beacon of resilience, sharing her journey through cystic fibrosis and motherhood all while under the ticking clock of a terminal diagnosis. Her account, filled with hope and faith, will not just move you; it will offer a glimpse into the incredible milestones she's achieved – including a high-risk pregnancy with twins and her motivation to raise awareness for organ donation and life of the unborn.
You'll feel the emotional tug of Kelly's life-or-death experiences, especially during the gripping tale of her lung transplant. As her health rapidly declined, and only 24 hours to live, a second chance carried with it not only a new lease on life but also a deep connection to her organ donor. Through the solace of faith, her story is a profound testament to the power of hope and the strength of family, even in the bleakest of times.
Finally, we venture into the complexities of life post-transplant, where Kelly articulates the bittersweet reality of survival. While navigating the new challenges that come with a new lung, she speaks candidly about the personal transformations that accompany her journey.
Kelly's story is not just hers to tell; it's a guiding light for all who seek the courage to face their own battles.
