When prayers feel like they’re bouncing off the ceiling and life goes sideways—what then? Pastor Erik Reed shares the gut-punch story behind his book, Uncommon Trust—a 15-year fight for his son’s life after a devastating medical mistake. This isn’t tidy faith talk about trusting God. It’s the gritty road from “God will fix it” to “but if not.” If your faith feels white-knuckled and shaky in suffering, this conversation meets you there.
