About this listen
From Fatherless to Fathering | Pastor Brandon’s Redemption Story
“I didn’t know how to be a father… because I never knew how to be a son.”
In this powerful episode, Pastor Brandon shares his raw, redemptive journey from growing up fatherless to becoming a spiritual and practical father. He opens up about the wounds of his past, the mentors who showed up when he needed them most, and how God transformed his understanding of identity, masculinity, and love.
