Shifting Roles: Sister's Story, When Caregiving Becomes the Call

From 'Forge' to Faith: A Surprising And Unexpected Conversation About God

In this touching episode of Share It With Charlotte, I share a recent, unexpected encounter with someone who surprised me with a simple but profound statement: "I want to know who God is..."I want to know Him" He had watched the Christian film The Forge, and something in it stirred his heart. But it wasn’t the movie alone that led him to share this with me—it was the fact that he saw something in me. He told me he felt safe asking because he believed I was a good person. This moment reminded me of how the way we live, love, and represent our faith can quietly impact others. I was able to encourage him to seek out a Bible-teaching church, and remind him that God is ready to meet him right where he is. Tune in as we explore the importance of living authentically and being the kind of person others feel safe approaching when their heart begins to seek.
