Azad "Oz” Ebrahimzadeh is U.S. Army Special Forces 18D Medic – Green Beret Veteran who served multiple tours in combat zones across the Middle East and Africa.

In this episode, Oz shares his journey from growing up as the son of Iranian refugees to becoming a highly trained Special Forces operator, and how a moment of crisis led him to embrace Christianity. He discusses the challenges of military life, the misconceptions about special operations units, and the difficult transition to civilian life after retirement.

Listen to how OZ challenges us to approach faith with humility and grace, recognizing that God's plans for us may not always align with our own desires. He encourages us to let go of our need for control and to trust in God's wisdom, even when we don't understand His reasons.

It was inspiring to hear OZ's insights on finding purpose after leaving military service, and how he has learned to rewrite his story rather than trying to replicate his past experiences. May these reflections encourage you to face life's challenges with courage and faith, knowing that surrender to God can lead to unexpected growth and transformation.
