Martha welcomes Erika to speak about moving from victimhood to victory after her husband unexpectedly left their marriage of 16 years despite her faithful Christian life and service.

• Growing up deeply involved in church and developing strong spiritual disciplines
• Marrying at 19 and living the "good Christian life" as a pastor's wife and mother
• Feeling angry with God when her marriage fell apart despite doing everything "right"
• Realizing she had a transactional relationship with God rather than understanding His true character
• Finding strength in Isaiah 54 - "your maker is your husband, the Lord Almighty is his name"
• Experiencing God's provision through unexpected financial gifts after faithfully tithing
• Learning God cares about even small insecurities when He prompted someone to do her hair
• Choosing to focus on God's presence and blessings rather than dwelling on difficulties
• Understanding that developing "eyes to see and ears to hear" transforms our perspective
• Recognizing that God is enough regardless of our circumstances
