212. FAITH AFTER LOSS: Learning to Live Again


Listen Later

In one of his most personal episodes yet, Norense Odiase opens up about the deep ache of losing his sister and grandmother—and how grief has reshaped his understanding of purpose, faith, and motivation.

Recording in real time, Norense brings listeners into his Cedar Hill home, revisiting memories, unpacking triggers, and confronting the pain that comes when life feels unfair. He speaks with raw honesty about his struggles with consistency, self-doubt, and the haunting “why” questions that surface in loss. But woven through it all is a powerful truth: God’s character never changes, even when life does.

Through Scripture, reflection, and heartfelt storytelling, Norense reminds us that seasons of suffering are not the end—they’re training grounds for endurance, compassion, and renewed faith.
