In this heartfelt episode, Lori Apon welcomes her son, Evan, to share what it was like to grow up without a dad and how God became his Father. Together, they encourage moms raising sons to move from a victim mentality to a victorious mindset rooted in truth. You will be reminded that even when Dad is absent, God is present and powerful to redeem your child’s story.

Key Takeaways

1. Beliefs shape behavior

   A victim mentality begins with false beliefs like “I can’t overcome.” Moms can help their sons replace those lies with truth from God’s Word, which leads to hope and confidence.

2. God is the true Father

   Even without an earthly dad, sons can find identity, strength, and direction in their heavenly Father, who promises to be faithful.

3. Moms are powerful influencers

   Your example of faith, gratitude, and perseverance speaks louder than words. When you live in victory, your children learn to do the same.

4. From pain to purpose

   God can turn every hard place into a platform for His glory. Encourage your children to trust His plan and walk forward in hope.
