As we begin a new year, many parents are carrying more than they expected — unresolved relationships, unanswered prayers, and the quiet weight of loving a child through pain, distance, or deep disagreement.
In this first episode of the Still Faithful series, we slow down together and begin with something essential: releasing shame.
This episode is for parents who are questioning themselves, their faith, or what faithfulness looks like after a hard year. It's a grounding invitation to look back honestly — without self-blame — and to begin moving forward with steadiness, clarity, and grace.
This is not about fixing your child or forcing outcomes.
It's about strengthening you.
The difference between faithfulness and outcomes
How to look back at the past year without self-condemnation
What you may be carrying that was never meant to be yours
Why faithfulness can coexist with heartbreak
How to begin a new year grounded rather than striving
Where have I been harder on myself than God has been?
What did faithfulness look like for me this past year — even if it felt quiet or unseen?
What responsibility or guilt do I need to release as I move forward?
You can be deeply faithful and deeply heartbroken at the same time.
Faithfulness does not require resolution — only presence.
As we move through this series, we'll continue to explore how to stay spiritually anchored, emotionally steady, and rooted in love — even when the story isn't finished.
Still Faithful is a season created for Christian parents navigating painful, unresolved parenting journeys — including estrangement, distance, and moments when a child's choices challenge deeply held beliefs.
This series is designed to help you:
Stay grounded when parenting hurts
Discern next faithful steps without pressure
Love well without losing yourself
Trust God even when outcomes are uncertain
