• The Journey of YET
    Jan 23 2026

    🔥 This one’s for the family fighting to hold it together and the believer clinging to God’s promises. Welcome to “The Journey of Yet.”

    In this heart-filled episode of Unshackled Love, Bruce and Kaila Payne dive deep into faith, parenting nine(!) kids, rebuilding after brokenness, and the power of "yet"- that sacred space between who we are and who God is calling us to be. From tantrums to Titus, prodigals to purpose, they share raw stories of redemption, obedience, and transformation through Christ.

    🙌 Whether you’re in a dry season or on fire for the Lord, this is your reminder: God isn’t done with you yet.

    💬 Reflect with us: What’s your “yet”? What part of your life is still under construction by God? Let us know in the comments.
