What does it mean to be a parent when the path looks different from what you imagined? In this conversation, special needs dad John Fela shares his journey of raising his autistic son, Christopher—and how fatherhood, in all its changing seasons, has deepened his faith and revealed the essential gift of community.

John offers encouragement to parents who feel weary or unseen, reminding us that the journey of parenting—especially when navigating disability—is not meant to be walked alone.

In this opening episode of Season 3, Josh returns to a simple but powerful spiritual practice first explored in Season 1, Episode 9: naming what’s working and what’s not.

Through listener reflections and his own honest check-in, Josh invites you to pause, breathe, and notice where life and connection are flowing—and where they’re not.

This is not a productivity exercise, but a contemplative one:
a way of paying attention to the shifting seasons of your own heart, body, and faith.

You’ll also hear about a special upcoming live recording, “Gratitude in All Circumstances,” and be invited to join the Neurodivergent Faith community in practicing honest, embodied gratitude together.

May this episode remind you that God is present not only in what’s thriving,
but also in what’s tender, unfinished, and hard to name.

In this season finale, Jordan Rios joins us to share her journey of late diagnosis, deep healing, and resilient faith. As a single mother of seven—navigating ADHD, CPTSD, and a lifetime of misdiagnosis—Jordan speaks with raw honesty about overstimulation, self-care, and the slow work of rewriting harmful messages.

Together, we explore what it means to parent through trauma, to care for a dysregulated nervous system with compassion, and to hold on to a faith that doesn’t abandon our bodies. This is a story of survival and sacred resistance, of learning to thrive in the mess, the noise, and the mystery.
