Does God have a sense of humor? Erik and Mayana share a testimony that answers that question with a resounding yes — and then goes deeper into what it really means to encounter God in the middle of hardship.
Because when He shows up in the mess, something gets established in you that no one can take away. Erik and Mayana have their own christian life coaching practice and one on one life coaching with people from all walks of life has been their focus for over a decade — real transformation happens when God meets you in the hard places, not after them.
This episode is real, it's funny, and it's powerful. If you've ever needed God to show up in a situation that felt impossible, this one is for you.

Katie's life was filled with darkness and confusion — fear, trauma, and storms that began in her teenage years. When she was diagnosed with autism in her thirties it explained a lot, but it was her encounter with God that changed everything.
Through addiction help, spiritual growth, and a journey that no life coaching program could have scripted, Katie found real freedom. She was led to a church where she is loved, where she has freedom to serve God, and where He miraculously healed her from her past. Katie is a warrior for Christ — unwavering, unshakeable, and living proof that God's light shines brightest in the darkest storms.
If you are in addiction recovery, walking through trauma, or simply need to know that God can still heal and restore — this episode is for you.
"They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony." — Revelation 12:11
