“Healing the Wounds We Don’t Talk About: Grief, Addiction, and God’s Mercy.”

In this episode, we sit down with Heidi Luv from the Unfiltered Rise Podcast—and what began as a simple conversation about tithing and giving God our best quickly turned into something far deeper.

We started by talking about honoring God not just with our finances, but with our time, talents, and obedience. But then the Holy Spirit stepped in and shifted the entire direction of the conversation.

What we didn’t expect was that all three of us—Adrian, Heidi, and myself—had recently lost brothers. That revelation opened the door to raw, emotional stories about addiction, mental health struggles, suicide, and the kind of pain that only faith can carry you through.

This episode isn’t polished. It isn’t rehearsed. It’s real.

It’s three people, broken in their own ways, finding hope in Jesus Christ.

We also talk about severed relationships—the ones that break your heart because you didn’t choose the distance. The loved ones who won’t speak to us. And how we are trusting God to heal what we can’t fix ourselves.

This is one of the most honest and Spirit-filled conversations we’ve ever had. If you or someone you love is battling grief, addiction, or family brokenness… you are not alone. There is healing. There is hope. There is Jesus.
