Sometimes God's best sermons don't come from the pulpit—they come from your living room floor.
This week, a simple worship lyric—"Everything I need, my Father has it"—hit me different. Why? Because just 24 hours earlier, I lived out this exact truth with my son, a missing toy, and a full-blown meltdown that would rival any 1985 horror film.
In this episode, I share the hilarious (and convicting) story of how my son's trust issues with a lost toy became a mirror for how we all panic when we can't see what God's holding.
Featuring:
If you've ever lost your peace, your direction, or your mind wondering where God is… this one's for you.

Episode Overview:
What if the most profound sermon you heard this week didn't come from a pastor—but from a crying child and a missing toy?
This Sunday morning, I was at church when the worship leader sang: "Everything I need, my Father has it."
Simple line. Powerful truth.
But it hit me different because I'd just lived it out the day before with my son in the most hilariously convicting way possible.
What You'll Hear:

🧸 The Toy Crisis — My son's full nuclear meltdown over a missing toy (complete with 1985 slasher-film-level drama)
👨👦 80s Dad Protocol — Channeling Mr. Miyagi and Uncle Jesse to calm the chaos
❓ Trust Issues (Preschool Edition) — "Have I ever let you down? Do you trust me?" (Spoiler: He did NOT answer well)
🎯 The Plot Twist — I had the toy the WHOLE time (cue the divine mic drop)
✨ The Unseen Truth — How this became the sermon I didn't know I needed
The Big Takeaway:
You might not be able to see your future, but you can trust the One who holds it.
Just like my son couldn't see his toy while I was holding it the entire time, we often panic, stress, and flip out over things God already has in His hands.
Your peace? He's got it.
Your healing? He's holding it.
Your breakthrough? Already secured.
Your future? Safe in His hands.
Sometimes the blessing isn't in what you can see—it's in WHO is holding it while you can't.
