When life brings us to our knees, it’s nearly impossible to remember that one day the pain won’t feel as sharp, and somehow we’ll find new life beyond the sorrow. In fact, God can redeem our darkest moments by bringing love and joy and newfound purpose to our days. That’s what He’s done for our guests this week: pastor and author Jonathan Pitts, who recently lost his 38-year-old wife author Wynter Evans Pitts, and entrepreneur John Hill, who struggled to find his way in life until He trusted God for each moment.

Interview Quotes:

“Our identity, although it included our race, had nothing to do with our race. Our identity was much deeper than that.” - Jonathan Pitts



“It would take me years to discover just the level of woman that I married.” - Jonathan Pitts



“The beautiful thing of our marriage wasn't that it was perfect, but it was progressional.” - Jonathan Pitts 



“Wynter accomplished her mission and God called her home.” - Jonathan Pitts 



“[Slowing down] allows my girls to grieve even better, because with me being present, that allows me to be there for them.” - Jonathan Pitts 



“As hard as it's been [to lose a wife and mother], there's been a lot of sorrow, but there's been a ton of joy coupled with it.” - Jonathan Pitts  



“As a teenager, I started falling away from God, realizing, If it's black or white, there's no way I'm ever gonna make it to heaven.” - John Hill



“I just want to love You like I loved You when I was a kid, before I knew what sin was, before I knew what all this stuff was.” - John Hill
