Love, Loss & the Savior Who Suffers With Us featuring Pastor Mark Jordan

Pastor Mark Jordan joins Matt and Buffy for a deeply honest conversation about adoption, unexpected loss, and the kind of faith that gets tested in real life.

They share about stepping into their first adoption full of hope — only to walk through heartbreak that forever marked their family. Their second journey wasn't without obstacles either, but in the middle of uncertainty, advocacy and community stepped in to help clear the path forward.

This episode isn't just about adoption. It's about moral injury. Trauma. Trust. And the hard question so many people ask: Where is God in suffering?

Pastor Mark brings it home with a powerful reminder — even Jesus suffered. Our faith isn't built on avoiding pain, but on a Savior who steps into it.

If you've ever walked through loss, faced unexpected roadblocks, or wrestled with God in the middle of it all, this conversation will meet you there.
