Luis Ruiz - Part Two - The Faithfulness of God {Eps 35}

Luis Ruiz - Part Two - The Faithfulness of God {Eps 35}

Author: Melinda Patrick August 9, 2023 Duration: 48:27

Oh, the faithfulness of God!  He is not only at work in pursuing our children but He is in hot pursuit of our hearts, too.  

One of my favorite quotes from Luis:  "I thank God that I had a mom and dad that knew the power of intercession and prayer even when it looked like all hell was breaking loose.  When it looked like they were ready to throw in the towel, they knew how to call upon God and not compromise Scripture and stand on Scripture and believe the Word of God."

Melinda Patrick hosts The Bridge Between Us: A Guide For Christian Parents Navigating the LGBTQ Conversation, a space created for those navigating one of family life's most complex and emotional journeys. This podcast speaks directly to the moment a parent learns their child identifies as LGBTQ-a moment often met with a whirlwind of love, fear, faith questions, and a deep desire to preserve connection. Rather than offering simplistic answers, these conversations explore the nuanced tension between deeply held religious beliefs and the unconditional love for a child. Melinda brings empathy and understanding to the heartbreak and confusion, assuring parents they are not alone in their struggle. Each episode delves into practical aspects of building and maintaining that essential bridge of relationship, discussing what it means to embody both grace and truth in daily interactions. The dialogue here is for parents seeking to move beyond fear or isolation, looking for a compassionate path forward that honors their faith and their child. By focusing on real stories and thoughtful perspectives, this podcast becomes a vital resource for strengthening family bonds during a time of profound change. It’s about finding a way to walk together, even when the path feels unfamiliar.
