In this episode of the Engage Your Destiny podcast, host Ben Peterson shares a deeply personal and spiritual journey about pain, pruning, and God’s refining fire. From welcoming his newborn son Archer Jonathan to reflecting on overgrown bushes, Ben draws powerful lessons on why God allows messiness and suffering in our lives—and how it leads to true spiritual growth.

Through heartfelt storytelling, scripture from John 15 and Malachi 3, and a moving analogy of the silversmith, Ben explores:

Why pruning and pain are necessary for a greater harvest

How to stay connected to Jesus, the true Vine

The messy reality of marriage, family, and fighting for purity

How God refines us in the hottest flames so we can reflect His image to the world

This episode is an authentic, hope-filled reminder that even the most painful seasons have purpose, and our calling is to reflect Christ to everyone around us.
