She was only eight when her mother nervously walked into a church after eighteen years away—still clutching the last drag of a cigarette in the parking lot. That Sunday marked the beginning of a new life, not just for a mother rediscovering God, but for a daughter quietly watching everything change.

What followed was a childhood shaped by prayer and anchored by a faithful church family—but also marred by silent battles with shame, insecurity, and a hidden eating disorder that lasted into adulthood. After marrying young and slowly drifting away from truth, she thought she could come back whenever she was ready. But sin doesn’t work that way.

Years passed. Faith faded. Until a dying grandmother’s terrifying warning and a sermon on Holy Ghost Radio jolted her soul awake.

This episode tells the story of a woman who left—but didn’t stay gone. A mother who returned before her husband did. A teacher now shaping the next generation in the same school that helped save her.

Because no matter how far you’ve gone, God never stops calling.

And when He restores… it’s like you never left.

As Season 4 of Paths to Glory draws to a close, we pause to ask the question at the heart of every story we’ve shared: What does it mean to be truly free?

As we wrap up Season 4, we celebrate not only these incredible journeys but the Savior who makes them possible. If you’ve ever felt bound by your past, your guilt, your secret struggles, let this closing chapter be your invitation: when Jesus steps into your life, chains don’t just fall—they’re replaced with a future bursting with hope.

Your path to glory starts now.

He grew up with a lisp, buck teeth, and a home filled with more dysfunction than affection. By age four, his father was gone. By ten, his family was split. Shame, insecurity, and survival shaped his childhood—but somewhere beneath it all was a longing for something better.

In this powerful testimony, one man shares how a quiet hunger for truth led him from beer-soaked barrooms and broken relationships to a Spirit-filled altar and a brand-new identity. Through military service, marriage struggles, fatherhood, and a terrifying health scare with his newborn granddaughter, we witness God’s hand at work—restoring what was lost and rewriting what was broken.

This is a story about finding your voice… finding your family… and finding freedom in Jesus. A story that reminds us: when God delivers, He doesn’t do it halfway. He makes all things new.
