Solo Parent Podcast
Being a single parent comes with unique challenges, but you don’t have to navigate them alone. Our podcast is a space where you’ll find encouragement, expert insights, and a community that gets it.
This week we’re discussing When Christmas Comes Through Unlikely People
Today, we cover three main points:
• How God works through unlikely beginnings • Why your story still carries worth even when life feels heavy • How the message of Christmas offers hope to weary hearts
Every solo parent knows what it feels like to wonder whether their life still has impact, especially in seasons filled with comparison, busyness, and unmet expectations. This conversation with Curtis “CZ” Zackery, author of Soul Rest and founder of Find Rest, matters because it reveals a truth many of us forget: God uses ordinary, unexpected people and moments to carry his hope into the world. Even when you feel behind or overlooked, you are not outside the story God is telling.
Resources Mentioned In This Episode:
Soul Rest by Curtis “CZ” Zackery: This book reveals how our misaligned view of rest has its roots in an identity that is out of rhythm with God.
Find Rest: This organization (founded by Curtis “CZ” Zackery) offers personalized coaching, spiritual care, leadership support, and Bible study guidance designed to help individuals and organizations regain balance in their lives.
