E151: How to Forgive the Unforgivable w/Deacon Charlie & Jess

The Lila Rose Podcast

Is it possible to recover after a lifetime of suffering abuse and mistreatment? How do we find forgiveness when the wounds run deep and feel unforgivable? Today I sit down with Deacon and Charley and Jessica Escheverry. Together they run SOFESA, a nonprofit organization that has served homeless families for 25 years. Jessica shares the story of a difficult childhood that ultimately led to life on the streets and three unexpected pregnancies. Charley and Jessica discuss how God's providence has shaped their journey, revealing how their faith and marriage became powerful sources of healing.
