A dad sits up in a coffin and starts talking about heaven and suddenly you can’t stay numb. That moment launches a bigger story with our guest, Scottie McLeod, whose life runs straight through addiction, jail, and homelessness before it finally turns toward surrender, healing, and purpose. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’ve crossed a line you can’t come back from, Scottie’s Christian testimony meets that fear head-on with one clear message: you are not too far gone.

We talk about the legacy behind Broken Stone Ministries and Our Father’s Arms in Jacksonville, Alabama, including men’s homes that support recovery and prison reentry, plus a free medical clinic. Scottie shares what it’s like to carry ministry forward after the death of a father who served people quietly and relentlessly, and how trust grows when resources feel uncertain. The theme keeps coming back to grace over performance and surrender over control, not as religious slogans but as lived experience.

Then the episode lands in the everyday miracle zone: one car ride, one open door, and a man living in a powerless lawnmower shed gets a chance to rebuild. That single act of love leads to a reunion with his daughter and a restored family. We also touch on Scottie’s international connections and support for families affected by the war in Ukraine, proving that hope can travel further than we expect.
