What if the most sacred moments with God didn’t come in quiet perfection—but in chaotic surrender? In this deeply honest and hope-filled episode, we’re joined by Cathy Colver Garland, co-author of Revelationship: Transformative Intimacy With Christ and creator of the blog Gracefull Musings. As a former COO turned Spirit-filled mentor for moms and women, she shares how her journey through pain, deconstruction, and unexpected surrender led to a more intimate, real relationship with God.

We explore what it means to practice the presence of God in the everyday chaos of motherhood, grief, and rebuilding. With personal stories that include divorce, miscarriages, and breaking her neck (twice!), Cathy reminds us that God reveals Himself not in spite of our pain—but through it.

This episode isn’t about formulas or religious performance—it’s about real relationship. It’s an invitation to say “yes” to a God who is already pursuing you.
