Can you forgive someone who has never acknowledged the pain they caused? And does forgiveness mean you have to let them back into your life?

Thirty-nine years after being kidnapped by her father and taken to Jordan, Lauren Burns reflects on the journey toward forgiving the man who changed her childhood forever.

In this deeply personal solo episode, Lauren shares an unexpected encounter with her father on the anniversary of her kidnapping, the questions she carried for years, and the biblical truths that helped her understand forgiveness.

Drawing from John 5, John 9, and Luke 23:34, Lauren explores the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation, the importance of healthy boundaries, and the freedom that can come from surrendering pain to God.

In this episode:

• The longing for an apology that may never come
• Confronting the person who caused deep hurt
• Forgiveness without reconciliation
• Taking practical steps toward healing
• Finding strength in Jesus' example

Remember: You can forgive someone without excusing what happened or returning to an unsafe relationship.

What happens when the very thing that makes you feel different becomes part of your purpose?

Born in Guatemala with a severe cleft lip and palate, Camey Joy faced life-threatening challenges from her first days of life. After a remarkable journey to the United States, she endured more than 23 surgeries while navigating the emotional wounds of growing up with visible scars.

In this powerful conversation, Camey joins Lauren Burns to share the story behind her memoir, Beautifully Scarred. She opens up about adoption, childhood trauma, struggles with identity, and the healing she found through her faith in Jesus.

Doctors once told her family she might never speak or sing. Today, she uses her voice to encourage others around the world.

Camey's story reminds us that our scars don't disqualify us from being used by God. Sometimes the places we've been wounded become the very places where hope begins.

She escaped a flash flood with her 7-week-old baby strapped to her chest.

When Hurricane Helene brought devastating floodwaters into Elisabeth Anderson's neighborhood, she and her husband tried to escape with their newborn son and two dogs.

They barely made it out of the driveway.

Within moments, rushing water turned their car sideways. Elisabeth climbed through the sunroof, strapped her seven-week-old baby to her chest, and waited on top of the vehicle as the water continued rising.

For nearly two hours, she prayed for God to save them.

What Elisabeth didn't know was just how dangerous their situation had become—or what rescuers downstream were preparing for if their car didn't hold.

In this powerful episode of The Redeemed Podcast, Elisabeth shares the story of surviving the flood, the trauma and survivor's guilt that followed, her struggle with anger toward God, and how losing almost everything transformed her faith.

Lauren and Elisabeth also uncover an incredible connection between their stories: Elisabeth grew up near the family of JD Roberts, one of the men involved in Lauren's international rescue after she was kidnapped and taken to Jordan as a child.

In this conversation:

• Surviving Hurricane Helene and catastrophic flash flooding
 • Escaping a vehicle with a newborn during rising floodwaters
 • Prayer and faith during a life-or-death emergency
 • Processing trauma and survivor's guilt
 • Wrestling with anger toward God
 • Finding purpose after tragedy
 • Building a faith deeply rooted enough to withstand life's storms
 • How trauma can affect children and families
 • Elizabeth's upcoming children's book, Goodbye Little House
• The remarkable connection between Elisabeth's rescue story and Lauren's

No matter what your “storm” looks like, Elisabeth's story is a reminder that the foundation you build before the storm matters when the waters begin to rise.

What happens to your faith when you pray for a miracle—and the answer isn't what you hoped for?

Zach Rippey, host of the I Like Birds podcast and author of Me, Armani, and Jesus, joins Lauren Burns on The Redeemed Podcast to share the deeply personal story of losing his best friend, Armani, at just 28 years old.

After a life-changing encounter with Jesus, Zach began sharing his newfound faith with the people closest to him—including Armani. Soon, Armani and his fiancée, Kelly, were growing in their own faith, praying together and studying God's Word.

Then everything changed.

During a whitewater rafting trip, Armani suffered a devastating stroke. Kelly fought to keep him above water while they waited for help, and Zach joined friends, family, and his podcast community in praying desperately for a miracle.

The answer wasn't what they had hoped for.

In this honest conversation, Zach shares what happened next—and what God has taught him about grief, unanswered prayer, suffering, eternity, and trusting God when we don't understand His ways.

You'll also hear how Armani's life continued to impact others through organ donation, ultimately saving three lives, and why Zach chose to preserve his best friend's legacy in Me, Armani, and Jesus.

In this episode:

• What to do when God doesn't answer a prayer the way you hoped
 • Zach's unexpected journey from stand-up comedy to following Jesus
 • Why you don't have to know everything before God can use you
 • Armani's growing faith before his death
 • The final text Zach received from his best friend
 • The whitewater rafting accident that changed everything
 • Wrestling with grief, loss, and unanswered questions
 • Finding God in the middle of suffering
 • How Armani's organ donation saved three lives
 • Turning grief into testimony and legacy
 • Why your story can point someone else toward Jesus

If you've ever lost someone you love, questioned God after an unanswered prayer, or wondered how to hold onto your faith when life doesn't make sense, this conversation is for you.

At 45, Beth Caulfield thought she knew what the next chapter of her life would look like. She was raising older children, attending seminary and pursuing what she believed God had called her to do.

Then she discovered she was pregnant.

Beth found herself asking a question many of us have asked in very different circumstances:

“I thought I knew the plan here. How does this fit into the plan?”

That unexpected chapter ultimately became the inspiration for the faith-based film CONCEIVABLE.

In this episode of The Redeemed Podcast, Lauren talks with Beth about navigating an unexpected pregnancy, conflicting advice and opinions, discerning God's voice when everyone seems to have something to say, and trusting Him when life takes a direction you never anticipated.

Beth also takes us behind the scenes of turning her personal story into a feature film—from learning screenwriting and finding the cast to persevering through four years of obstacles, sacrifice and uncertainty.

But some of the most powerful moments came after women began watching the film.

Beth shares what happened when one woman approached her after a screening and said, “I thought I was alone,” and how another woman's response showed her that God could use Conceivable to open conversations about forgiveness, healing and freedom.

Whether you're facing an unexpected circumstance, waiting on God, pursuing something He's placed on your heart, or simply wondering “How does this fit into the plan?”, this conversation is a reminder to keep seeking His voice in the middle of uncertainty.

🎬 CONCEIVABLE — In select theaters beginning October 16.

Julie lost her mother to cancer at 19 and her father to suicide at 27. For years, she survived by pushing down her emotions while trying to faithfully follow Jesus, raise a family, and serve in ministry. Eventually, the trauma she had never processed caught up with her, leading Julie to seek professional help and begin naming wounds she hadn't previously known how to describe.

Julie shares how counseling helped her understand emotional neglect, abandonment, attachment, and the ways childhood wounds had affected her relationship with God. She also explains why getting professional help does not mean we lack faith—and how Scripture, counseling, community, and honest lament can all be part of the healing journey.

We also unpack one of the practical teachings from Julie's book Hopeful Sorrow: the biblical practice of lament. Using Psalm 13, Julie walks through four simple steps:

1. Turn to God in faith.
2. Tell Him honestly how you feel.
3. Ask Him boldly for help.
4. Choose to trust His character even before you know the outcome.

Then Julie shares an extraordinary chapter of redemption she never expected. After years of identifying herself as an adult orphan and trusting God as a Father to the fatherless, a longtime friendship developed into a mother-daughter relationship—and Julie was legally adopted as an adult.

Her story is a beautiful reminder that God may still be writing chapters we haven't even thought to ask Him for.

If you've experienced father wounds, childhood trauma, grief, abandonment, emotional neglect, suicide loss, or difficulty seeing God as a loving Father, this conversation is for you.

How do you trust God as a good Father when your earthly father was absent, emotionally unavailable, abusive, or unable to give you the love you needed?

In this powerful episode of The Redeemed Podcast, Lauren Burns sits down with author and speaker Kia Stephens for an honest conversation about father wounds, forgiveness, healing, childhood wounds, and learning to trust God as our Heavenly Father.

Kia grew up in the church, but as she entered adulthood, she began wrestling with a difficult question: If God is a Father to the fatherless, what does that actually mean when you've experienced the pain of an absent father?

Kia shares the seemingly ordinary moment involving a bookshelf that uncovered years of hidden pain, how father wounds affected her relationships and need for validation, and how our relationship with our earthly father can influence the way we view God.

Lauren and Kia also talk honestly about biblical forgiveness—what forgiveness is, what it is NOT, why forgiveness and healthy boundaries can coexist, and why healing is often a journey rather than a single moment.

One of Kia's most powerful realizations:

“I failed to realize that while I was pursuing my biological father, God had been pursuing me.”

If you've struggled with father wounds, childhood wounds, unforgiveness, abandonment, or trusting God after painful experiences, this conversation is for you.

In this episode, we talk about:
• Recognizing father wounds you didn't know you carried
• How an absent father can affect identity and relationships
• Searching for validation when a father's love is missing
• How our earthly father can influence the way we see God
• Wrestling honestly with God
• Learning to trust God as a good Father
• What forgiveness is—and what it isn't
• Why forgiveness and healthy boundaries can coexist
• How God can redeem our deepest wounds
• Recognizing the ways God has been pursuing us all along
