Love in Every Stripe: Finding God in the Brokenness with Shannon Debona
Manage episode 489283923 series 3645125
In this powerful and heartfelt episode, I sit down with Shannon Debona—author of Love in Every Stripe Book, speaker, elementary teacher, and woman of deep faith. Shannon shares her journey of growing up in the church and walking with God her whole life, only to find herself in a spiritually dry season, wondering where God was in her pain.
Shannon opens up about the tragic loss of her husband to suicide, along with the passing of her cousin and grandmother—all within a single year. Through her grief, she discovered a deeper truth: God meets us in our brokenness, and the scars we carry are not signs of weakness but proof of His presence and healing.
She tells us how her book sat unfinished for 11 years, until God called her to pick it up again—this time completing it in just three days. Her testimony is one of obedience, healing, and the power of true discipleship. Together, we talk about what it means to be obedient to God's call, to live out the gospel, and to share His love through every stripe and scar.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone who’s ever felt lost, wondered where God is in the pain, or needed a reminder that their story—and their scars—matter.
