Good Times, Bad Friends

When God Rewrites Your Story | Ryan Horne on Failure & Restoration


Listen Later

Some stories don’t get rewritten — they get redeemed.

In this episode of Good Times, Bad Friends, we sit down with Ryan Horne, an educator, coach, and mentor whose life includes near-death experiences, career detours, broken relationships, and a faith that had to be rebuilt from the ground up.

Ryan shares how surviving paralysis, serious accidents, and two battles with cancer forced him to confront who he was living for — and how losing his marriage became the painful catalyst for becoming the man God was calling him to be. Through humility, growth, and an unwavering commitment to faith and family, Ryan was given something rare: the same story, lived the right way this time.

This conversation explores:

  • Why performance can’t be your identity

  • How failure can become the foundation for restoration

  • What real leadership looks like when no one is watching

  • The power of faith, second chances, and staying present

If you’ve ever felt like you missed your moment or ruined your chance, this episode is proof that you’re not done yet.
