What if the unexpected turns in life are actually divine redirections? In this inspiring episode, I sit down with Bob Page, USAF Brigadier General (Retired) and chaplain, to talk about discovering purpose when life doesn’t go as planned.

From his early dreams of being a missionary to finding himself in the midst of war, Bob’s story is a powerful reminder that God’s plans are always greater than our own. Drawing from his book God Is Still for You: 10 Reasons You Can Be Sure Even When Life Is Hard, Bob shares practical ways to trust God’s goodness, find strength in trials, and see how even hardship can become holy ground.

With decades of experience helping others through crisis, confusion, and trauma, Bob is a soothing voice of wisdom and comfort, a reminder that God is still for us and always will be.
