About this listen

Ellie Gold thought she understood the rhythm of her life. A steady marriage. A familiar church. A beautiful family she believed was secure.

When her husband of fifteen years confesses an affair with a close family member, the revelation shatters everything she trusted.

In the aftermath, a single moment on a freezing river bridge leaves her asking the question she has avoided for years: where is God when everything you believe in falls apart? With two young sons depending on her, Ellie must keep moving forward even as her world unravels.

As Ellie navigates grief, shame, and the long road back to herself, unexpected friendships with a circle of women who refuse to let her disappear, and a tentative connection with an enigmatic neighbor, offer no easy answers. Only the fragile possibility that healing does not come all at once. It comes in fragments. In courage. And in choosing to stand again after even the worst betrayal.
