Life rarely moves in a straight line — and this episode speaks to the moments when the unexpected turn leaves us disoriented, disappointed, or wondering where God is in it all.

In this powerful conversation, Tricia and Jayne explore the reality that detours are universal — and often deeply painful — but they are never wasted in the hands of God. Drawing from the story of Joseph, listeners are reminded that God’s people have always walked winding roads marked by delay, rejection, and waiting. What looked like setbacks — a pit, slavery, prison — were actually the places where God was preparing Joseph for purpose.

At the heart of the episode is a grounding truth: detours expose the limits of self-reliance and invite us into deeper dependence on God. Scripture reminds us that when we are overwhelmed beyond our ability to endure, God is not absent — He is at work, teaching us to rely not on ourselves, but on Him.

The show unpacks how detours don’t cancel destiny — they shape it. God’s presence doesn’t disappear just because plans change. “The Lord was with Joseph” becomes a repeated refrain, reminding listeners that rejection by people is never rejection by God.

In a guided and deeply personal segment, Tricia and Jayne walk through what detours do inside us — refining character, deepening trust, testing faith, and creating unexpected opportunities for growth. Painful seasons become places where God forms holiness, humility, and readiness for what’s ahead.

The episode closes with hope-filled reassurance: detours are not the destination. God uses them to remove what must go, prepare what must grow, and lead us toward the purpose He’s already written. We may not see the full map — but we can trust the Guide.

If you’re walking a road you didn’t choose, this episode is a reminder you’re not lost — and you’re not alone.
The detour is not your destiny.
But God will use it to prepare you for it.
