The Hidden Path That Leads to Rock Bottom - Spiritually Fit Today

Welcome to Spiritually Fit Today with host Arnie Cole and guest Carrie. In this episode, Carrie courageously shares the deeper layers of her story, revealing how early wounds, bullying, and a lack of belonging led her down a path of destructive choices, unhealthy relationships, and spiritual darkness. What seemed like acceptance at first only pulled her further into isolation, pain, and eventually despair. As Carrie reflects on her teenage years, marriage, and the heartbreak of a broken home, she describes the weight of feeling unseen, unheard, and alone. This episode is a raw and compassionate reminder that God meets us in our deepest pain—and that our story is not over yet. 4 R Action Steps Read — Read John 14:6 aloud: “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Write it down and sit with it. Reflect — Ask: What wounds have I kept hidden? How have they shaped my choices or identity? Where do I need to bring truth into the darkness? Respond — Prayer: Lord, you see the wounds I carry, even the ones I’ve never spoken. Give me courage to bring them to you and begin the work of healing. Amen. Reveal — Share part of your story with someone you trust this week, or encourage someone else who may be silently struggling.
