The Unbelief Episode

In this heartfelt and raw episode of Whole Healed and Healthy, Mel shares the emotional rollercoaster of receiving life-changing news about his wife Randi's breast cancer diagnosis. Opening up about feelings of hopelessness, anger, and fear, Mel discusses the coexistence of faith and doubt in difficult times. He recounts the powerful biblical story of a boy's father seeking Jesus' healing and relates it to his own struggle with unbelief. Emphasizing the importance of embracing and expressing genuine emotions, Mel invites listeners to join him in leaning into their vulnerability and trusting in God's comfort and healing. As he reflects on his journey, he also calls for support and awareness for those battling cancer and those who have lost loved ones to the disease. Mel's candid reflections offer solace and solidarity, making it a compelling listen for anyone navigating similar challenges.

Every share, prayer, and purchase helps us keep the message of healing and hope alive.
