In this transformative and deeply honest episode of "Stuff God Never Said," host Audrey Cauthen welcomes guest Lex Renick from Revive Traveling Ministries for a conversation that is as raw as it is redemptive. Lex courageously shares her incredible journey from living as a transgender man for 14 years to discovering true healing and identity in Christ—a testimony that is sure to challenge and inspire.

Lex opens up about a childhood marked by trauma and confusion, and sheds light on the spiritual battles and societal pressures faced by so many. Through powerful storytelling, she describes her experience with dysphoria, the lure of cultural affirmation, and the deep longing to find belonging and love. Lex reveals how faith, coupled with persistent acts of love from Christians who truly embodied Jesus, ultimately led her to encounter God's unconditional acceptance and experience miraculous restoration.

Audrey and Lex dive into sensitive topics such as gender confusion, sexuality, the journey of detransitioning, and healing from deep-rooted wounds. Together, they expose common misconceptions about sin, shame, and outward appearances, affirming that God's work in our hearts doesn't always show up the way others expect.

This episode is a must-watch for parents, ministry leaders, and anyone wrestling with questions about identity, belonging, or how to love well across divides. Whether you are seeking truth, navigating a journey of faith, or supporting someone through questions of gender and sexuality, Lex’s testimony is proof that no one is too far gone for God’s redemption and love.

Key Takeaways:

• The real story behind outward sin and hidden brokenness
• How culture offers a counterfeit identity, and how Jesus offers the real thing

In this powerful episode of "Stuff God Never Said," hosts Audrey Cauthen and Christin Hart (aka “Cancer Warrior Kristen” on social media) dive deep into a story that is far more common—and more misunderstood—than we realize: the journey through cancer.

Christin Hart opens up about her shocking diagnosis with papillary thyroid cancer, a life-altering moment that came after years of survival mode, burnout, and striving to protect her family through every curveball life threw her way. From her family’s courageous move from San Diego to Nashville at the start of the pandemic, to the emotional exhaustion of supporting her husband through health crises, Christin shares candidly about navigating seasons of uncertainty, fear, and hope.

This episode is a beacon for anyone facing the darkness of a health battle or struggling to surrender their own plans for God’s unknown, and often unexpected, path. Christin’s story is rich with honesty—she breaks through misconceptions about what God “never said” about suffering, healing, health, and faith, and offers hard-earned encouragement for those facing their own trials.

Here’s what you’ll find in this episode:

• The silent epidemic: startling cancer statistics and why Christin refuses to keep her journey silent any longer.
• Christin’s personal battle: from mysterious symptoms and gut feelings to a diagnosis that rocked her world, and why her journey is about more than just survival.
• The power (and pain) of letting go of our own plans—and how Christin learned to surrender hers for God’s greater purpose.
• Hard questions: Dealing with fear, discouragement, and “guardian mechanisms” that keep us functioning but disconnected from ourselves and God’s healing work.
• A deeper exploration of holistic healing, trauma, and the importance of emotional health in physical recovery.
• Raw moments of faith, doubt, and miraculous prayers—and a new understanding of what it means to get your “voice” back in the midst of adversity.
• Real talk about the broken health care system, limited options, and what it means to fight for hope when you’re told there’s none.
• What Christin wishes every person battling cancer, chronic illness, or disappointment in God would know.

Whether you’re walking through a health crisis, supporting a loved one, or simply longing to understand where God is in life’s hardest detours, Christin’s candid testimony will inspire you to look for hope, healing, and the gentle leading of God—even in the most unexpected places.

Don't miss this honest, hope-filled conversation. Share this episode with anyone who needs encouragement in the fight for faith, health, or purpose!

In this eye-opening and deeply honest episode of "Stuff God Never Said," host Audrey Cauthen sits down with her friend Mark Brown—author of the beloved children’s book series Zen Pig—for a raw and encouraging conversation about wandering, searching, and ultimately finding faith.
Mark’s unique journey takes us from a strict Southern Baptist childhood through teenage rebellion, atheism, and years deeply immersed in Buddhism, New Age spirituality, and even a polyamorous marriage. As Mark bravely shares about his struggles with anger, loss, and disillusionment with the Church, he drops the pretense and invites us to witness the scenic route—one filled with detours, heartbreak, and surprising moments of grace.

🎙️ What to Expect in This Episode:

• Mark’s transition from “foaming-mouthed atheist” to a practicing Christian
• The critical moments that reshaped his understanding of science, wonder, and the metaphysical
• A vulnerable look at alternative relationships and the realities of a polyamorous marriage
• The deceptive appeal of New Age beliefs, and the life-altering realization that brought him back to Christ
• Why meditation, mindfulness, and self-discipline aren’t at odds with the Christian faith
• Honest talk about church hurt, religious culture, and rethinking what faith should look like
• The power of keeping faith simple and always coming back to “call your Dad”

Whether you’ve questioned faith, felt burned by religion, explored other philosophies, or simply long for real talk about what faith actually looks like, Mark’s story will both challenge and encourage you. Audrey and Mark don’t shy away from the harder questions—about sin, identity, marriage, healing, and the lies we often believe about God—but finish with hope and a clear invitation to step into honesty and relationship with Jesus.

You’re not alone if your road to faith hasn’t been a straight line. This inspiring episode will help you see that redemption is possible for everyone, no matter how far you’ve wandered.

In this vulnerable and hope-filled episode of "Stuff God Never Said," host Audrey Cauthen shifts the spotlight onto her own journey, sharing a raw and personal testimony of navigating infertility, loss, and the powerful lies we often believe about God’s love. From growing up in a rule-heavy church environment to facing years of heartbreak through miscarriage, endometriosis, and the isolation of infertility, Audrey pulls back the curtain to reveal how persistent messages of unworthiness threatened to drown out God's truth in her life.

With honesty and courage, Audrey recounts the pivotal moments when she felt left out of God’s blessings—first as a little girl longing for spiritual gifts, and later as a wife yearning for motherhood. She walks us through the loneliness and grief of miscarriages, including her traumatic experience with an ectopic pregnancy, and the misguided advice and silence that so often surround these struggles. Through it all, Audrey discovers the relentless, redemptive love of a God who never asks us to earn His love and who shows up in the smallest details—including a tattoo and a miraculous pregnancy.

You’re Not Alone—And You’re Not Unworthy; Jesus Makes You Worthy!

Audrey’s story is a beacon to anyone who has ever questioned their value in God’s eyes or felt unworthy of good things. She reminds us that the lies we believe—whether from our upbringing, our culture, or our circumstances—are exactly the kinds of "stuff God never said." Instead, God’s truth is that you are deeply loved, seen, and worthy—not because of what you do, but because you are His child.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• The damaging effects of believing lies about God’s character and your worth
• The heartbreak and hidden grief of infertility and miscarriage
• The importance of healthy, loving community during seasons of loss
• The freedom found in embracing God’s unconditional love
• Practical encouragement for anyone walking through infertility, loneliness, or spiritual confusion

Whether you are in a season of waiting, walking through loss, or just need to be reminded of who God really is, Audrey’s story will strengthen your faith and encourage you to seek the truth of what God really says. Don’t carry your pain alone—join us in this honest conversation and let’s fight the lies together.
