27. Tammy Garcia | God of compassionate preparation

In this powerful and hope-filled episode, I sit down with Tammy Garcia, a woman whose life story is marked by perseverance, faith, and redemption.Tammy has been married to her husband for 37 years and is the proud mom of two sons and one daughter. While her life reflects deep love and commitment, her journey has not been without hardship. Tammy openly shares her experiences with loss, addiction, and brokenness—and how, even in the darkest seasons, she never let go of her faith.Throughout our conversation, Tammy reflects on how suffering shaped her rather than defeated her. She offers a striking perspective, describing suffering as a flood—one that doesn’t come to destroy, but to prepare you, strengthen you, and equip you to survive the storm when it comes.Her testimony is a beautiful reminder that redemption is always possible and that God is present even in the most overwhelming seasons of life. Tammy’s story will encourage anyone who feels weary, stuck, or uncertain, reminding us that faith can carry us through—even when the waters rise.
