In this month’s Word of Life podcast, Claude, Sheila, and Wambil each share moving stories of how they experienced being “lost” in different ways—and how God found them, just like the shepherd in Luke 15:6: “Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost.”
These real-life testimonies speak to the grace of being seen, pursued, and welcomed back with love.
In this episode:
- Tom Rowley offers the opening reflection.
- Claude Blanc reflects on a turbulent youth, a spiritual journey across continents, and how God led him back—again and again—to a community and purpose rooted in love.
- Sheila Larusso shares how the grief of losing her father left her feeling lost, and how God slowly reached out to her heart, especially through the people who walked with her in that season.
- Wambil Martinez opens up about rebuilding her life after an abusive relationship, and how a small moment of volunteering became the spark that led her back to faith.
