What do you do when you’ve handed God the keys to your life…and everything still falls apart?

In this deeply honest episode, Adam shares the most painful part of his story: losing his first son, AJ, and wrestling with whether he could really trust God after that. From screaming at God in the middle of a small Florida neighborhood to hearing the quiet whisper, “I’m going to give you three,” Adam walks through how grief, anger, and confusion became the ground where trust and surrender were rebuilt.

You’ll hear about:

  • Losing a child and choosing not to take the “keys” back from God
  • How God unexpectedly built a family out of tragedy
  • The simple, scared prayers God still chose to answer
  • Experiencing God as Adonai (Lord), Jehovah (relational God), and Elohim (all-powerful) in real life, not just in theory
  • Why being connected to a local church and community is critical when life falls apart
  • What it practically looks like to say, “Not my will, but Yours,” one step at a time

If you’re wondering whether God is really good, really in control, or really worth trusting after what you’ve been through, this episode is for you. No fake answers. No pressure to pretend you’re okay. Just a real story of pain, surrender, and the unexpected ways God shows up when you let Him drive.

Listen in and consider: will you give Him the keys—even here, even now, right where your feet are?
