What Trauma Taught Him About God... Until It Didn't - SFT

Welcome to Spiritually Fit Today with Arnie Cole and guest Mike Heili. In this episode Arnie interviews Mike about his journey from a traumatic childhood to a life restored by faith. Mike is a husband, father of four, an optician, Ironman triathlete and certified Ironman coach; his story shows how God meets us even when we’ve decided no one cares. Take the 4 R actions: - Read: Read Joel 2:25. Let the promise of restoration be the lens for the week. - Reflect: Spend 5 minutes journaling on where you feel years or hope were lost. Ask, “What would restoration look like here?” and note one honest response. - Respond: Find 30 quiet seconds and say, “Help me.” Then choose one concrete next step this week (start daily Scripture reading, call a mentor, or seek counseling). - Reveal: Share a brief testimony or the promise of Joel 2:25 with one person this week; offer to pray with them or invite them into a conversation about restoration.
