In this honest conversation, Lori welcomes pastor, husband, father, and Absent Dad, Present Father contributor Kyle Ogle to share his powerful testimony of growing up without a father and the lasting impact of rejection. Kyle opens up about meeting his biological father as a young teen, only to later experience heartbreaking abandonment that shaped many of his struggles with insecurity, identity, anger, and fear of abandonment.Yet through God's kindness, the influence of faithful men, and the healing work of Christ, Kyle's story did not end in rejection. Today, he serves as the lead pastor of Center Church in Texas, loves being a husband and father, and points others to the truth that God truly is a present Father to the fatherless.This conversation offers hope to widowed and single mothers raising children alone, encouragement to fatherless sons and daughters wrestling with rejection, and a reminder that our stories do not have to be defined by the absence of an earthly father. Through Jesus, there is healing, identity, belonging, and redemption.Key TakeawaysThe hidden wounds of fatherlessnessHelping children process dormant griefThe importance of godly mentors and the body of ChristFinding identity in God as FatherBreaking generational cycles through ChristResources MentionedAbsent Dad, Present Father: From Loss to Light – Testimonies of God's Unfailing Love for Fatherless ChildrenScripture Referenced: Ezekiel 18, Matthew 3, John 1, Psalm 68:5ConnectTo connect with Perspective Ministries and learn more about resources for widows and fatherless children, visit Perspective Ministries

Does your faith feel fragile, distant, or broken? You're not alone. In this episode, Jason Hague and Catherine McNiel share how a mid-faith crisis can actually be the doorway to a deeper, more resilient walk with God. Doubt isn't the end of your faith—it may be the beginning of something new. In this powerful conversation, my guests share their personal stories of grief, unmet expectations, and doubt—and how God met them in the middle of the mess. Together, we'll explore why seasons of crisis can be fertile ground for deeper growth, how to let go of false certainties, and how to embrace a faith that is more resilient, honest, and rooted in God's goodness.
