#402: When Life Doesn't Go As Planned

What is your response when life doesn't go as planned?

Do you doubt God's love for you? Question your purpose? Struggle to find your identity, when what you thought would define your life no longer exists as a possibility?   On this episode of the More to Be Podcast, I'm joined by Sheridan Voysey, a fellow writer and speaker, as well as broadcaster, for a deeply powerful discussion about what to do when life doesn't go as planned. Sheridan, like many of us, experienced the dashing of dreams and hopes, both professionally and personally. He recounts how walking the road of faith while waiting on God for so many unanswered prayers shaped his identity and purpose. In his most recent book, The Making of Us: Who We Can Become When Life Doesn't Go to Planned, as well as in our conversation, Sheridan invites us to step into his story about his struggle with infertility and becoming a childless family with his wife, Merryn. But this episode isn't simply about their hopes and dreams rewritten -- it's about all of us and what to do when God's ways don't line up with our expectations.
