For Christian life coaching rooted in identity in Christ: If you are wrestling with sin, fear, addiction, or spiritual stagnation, you do not have to walk alone. Trusted coaches will guide you through Scripture, prayer, and practical steps toward freedom and purpose. https://www.sharethestruggle.org/coaching-rm
In this powerful episode, Hayden Daum shares his mission to reach one of the most unreached people groups in the world, the deaf community. From isolation and identity struggles to a radical encounter with God, Hayden’s story reveals how God transforms pain into purpose. You will discover the hidden challenges deaf individuals face daily, why many feel disconnected from the Church, and how simple actions can open the door for the gospel.
This conversation will shift how you see calling, limitation, and what it truly means to follow Christ.
Key Highlights: • The deaf community as one of the most unreached groups globally • “Dinner table syndrome” and unseen isolation • Identity struggles and blaming God • A supernatural encounter that changed everything • Why limitation does not limit God • Silence as a spiritual strength • How churches can practically reach the deaf community • Using platforms to spread the gospel
If you have ever felt overlooked, misunderstood, or unsure of your purpose, this message will remind you that God can use your life exactly as you are.
