Mercy in the Wilderness – A Conversation with Edward Part 3 (Audio)

from Forge: Conversations for the Journey · host Scottsdale Bible Church Men’s Ministry

What if losing everything was actually mercy? After years of leading a thriving ministry, Edward found himself drifting back toward addiction — slowly, subtly, and dangerously. What began as compromise eventually became collapse. Facing the reality that he was becoming the very cautionary story he once warned others about, he made a radical decision: walk away. In this episode, Edward shares the humbling journey of leaving behind success, selling everything, and taking his family on the road in an RV — not knowing it would become a year-long desert season of healing. From breakdowns to breakthroughs, from shame to surrender, he recounts the moment by a river in Arizona where God met him again. Sometimes the wilderness isn’t punishment — it’s protection. If you’re in a season that feels stripped down or uncertain, this conversation will encourage you to trust the God who restores.
