Description
<p>If you’re raising your children in church and praying their faith truly takes root, this episode will meet you right where you are.</p><p>In Part 1 of this three-part testimony, I sit down with Lori Hancock — a preacher’s kid raised in generations of strong Christian faith. Surrounded by grandparents and parents who poured into her spiritually, Lori had a solid foundation… yet after losing her younger brother to leukemia in her early teen years, grief led to rebellion, anger, and deep wrestling with God.</p><p>We talk about generational faith, teen rebellion in Christian homes, sibling loss, and how James 4:13–17 reshaped her understanding of tomorrow after realizing she had assumed she would always have more time.</p><p>For the overwhelmed Christian mom wondering if she’s doing enough, this episode is both sobering and hopeful. You can’t control your child’s choices — but you can faithfully plant seeds. And tomorrow is never guaranteed.</p><p>Part 1 of 3.</p><p></p><p><strong>Resources</strong></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1GCEv6jGKX/">Miracles in the Madness Community</a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://occ.edu/">Ozark Christian College</a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/live/AES5Ko0S3Ag?si=1EaTVkLKfEKuzk4J">Preaching Teaching Convention Lesson</a></p>
