Welcome to "Detours," a captivating podcast that explores the unexpected turns, detours, and redirections that occur in our lives and how they fit into God's grand plan. Join us as we embark on a journey of faith, resilience, and purpose, where we dive deep into the stories of individuals who have experienced profound detours and discovered divine meaning in their life's journey.
What does a book written thousands of years ago have to say about the world we live in today? More than you might think.
In the book of Hosea, God confronts His people for turning away from Him and chasing after idols. While we may not bow down to golden statues today, we have plenty of things competing for our hearts—money, success, relationships, politics, entertainment, and even our own ambitions.
Hosea reminds us that idolatry isn't just an ancient problem; it's a heart problem. Through the prophet's remarkable story, we discover the depth of God's love, the pain of our unfaithfulness, and His relentless desire to restore those who have wandered away.
Join us as we explore why Hosea is still incredibly relevant today, what our modern idols reveal about us, and how we can return to the God who continues to pursue us with unfailing love.

Prophets We Still Need
The Minor Prophets may have written thousands of years ago, but their message is surprisingly relevant to the world we live in today. In this episode of Detours, we explore the timeless warnings, challenges, and hope found in books like Haggai, Zechariah, Amos, Micah, Hosea, and Malachi—and what they can teach us about faith, culture, leadership, justice, repentance, and putting God first.
What would these ancient prophets say if they looked at our world today? And more importantly, what is God saying to His people through their words? Join us as we discover why the Minor Prophets still matter for Christians today and how their message can challenge the modern Church to live with greater faithfulness, courage, and hope.

It's Your Turn Now
Caring for aging parents can be one of life’s most emotional and unexpected detours. In this episode, we talk honestly about the complicated feelings that come when it’s time to hand the responsibility of caring for a parent over to a sibling. From relief and guilt to grief, fear, and learning to let go of control, we explore what it means to navigate changing family roles while still honoring the people we love. And in the middle of it all, we ask what it looks like to trust God with our parents when we can no longer be the ones carrying everything.
