  • Lex Renick's 14 Year JOURNEY to Finding TRUE Identity in Christ

    Lex Renick's 14 Year JOURNEY to Finding TRUE Identity in Christ
    Sep 4 2025
    In this transformative and deeply honest episode of "Stuff God Never Said," host Audrey Cauthen welcomes guest Lex Renick from Revive Traveling Ministries for a conversation that is as raw as it is redemptive. Lex courageously shares her incredible journey from living as a transgender man for 14 years to discovering true healing and identity in Christ—a testimony that is sure to challenge and inspire.

    Lex opens up about a childhood marked by trauma and confusion, and sheds light on the spiritual battles and societal pressures faced by so many. Through powerful storytelling, she describes her experience with dysphoria, the lure of cultural affirmation, and the deep longing to find belonging and love. Lex reveals how faith, coupled with persistent acts of love from Christians who truly embodied Jesus, ultimately led her to encounter God's unconditional acceptance and experience miraculous restoration.

    Audrey and Lex dive into sensitive topics such as gender confusion, sexuality, the journey of detransitioning, and healing from deep-rooted wounds. Together, they expose common misconceptions about sin, shame, and outward appearances, affirming that God's work in our hearts doesn't always show up the way others expect.

    This episode is a must-watch for parents, ministry leaders, and anyone wrestling with questions about identity, belonging, or how to love well across divides. Whether you are seeking truth, navigating a journey of faith, or supporting someone through questions of gender and sexuality, Lex’s testimony is proof that no one is too far gone for God’s redemption and love.

    Key Takeaways:
    • The real story behind outward sin and hidden brokenness
    • How culture offers a counterfeit identity, and how Jesus offers the real thing
    • Practical strategies for parents and churches to love and disciple the “misfit” and prodigal
    • Why your simple “yes” to love can change someone’s life—and maybe their eternity
    • The power of vulnerability, forgiveness, and community in the healing journey

  • Facing Cancer & Finding Hope: Christin Hart’s Incredible Survival Story - Pt 1

    Facing Cancer & Finding Hope: Christin Hart’s Incredible Survival Story - Pt 1
    Jul 30 2025
    In this powerful episode of "Stuff God Never Said," hosts Audrey Cauthen and Christin Hart (aka “Cancer Warrior Kristen” on social media) dive deep into a story that is far more common—and more misunderstood—than we realize: the journey through cancer.

    Christin Hart opens up about her shocking diagnosis with papillary thyroid cancer, a life-altering moment that came after years of survival mode, burnout, and striving to protect her family through every curveball life threw her way. From her family’s courageous move from San Diego to Nashville at the start of the pandemic, to the emotional exhaustion of supporting her husband through health crises, Christin shares candidly about navigating seasons of uncertainty, fear, and hope.

    This episode is a beacon for anyone facing the darkness of a health battle or struggling to surrender their own plans for God’s unknown, and often unexpected, path. Christin’s story is rich with honesty—she breaks through misconceptions about what God “never said” about suffering, healing, health, and faith, and offers hard-earned encouragement for those facing their own trials.

    Here’s what you’ll find in this episode:


    • The silent epidemic: startling cancer statistics and why Christin refuses to keep her journey silent any longer.
    • Christin’s personal battle: from mysterious symptoms and gut feelings to a diagnosis that rocked her world, and why her journey is about more than just survival.
    • The power (and pain) of letting go of our own plans—and how Christin learned to surrender hers for God’s greater purpose.
    • Hard questions: Dealing with fear, discouragement, and “guardian mechanisms” that keep us functioning but disconnected from ourselves and God’s healing work.
    • A deeper exploration of holistic healing, trauma, and the importance of emotional health in physical recovery.
    • Raw moments of faith, doubt, and miraculous prayers—and a new understanding of what it means to get your “voice” back in the midst of adversity.
    • Real talk about the broken health care system, limited options, and what it means to fight for hope when you’re told there’s none.
    • What Christin wishes every person battling cancer, chronic illness, or disappointment in God would know.

    Whether you’re walking through a health crisis, supporting a loved one, or simply longing to understand where God is in life’s hardest detours, Christin’s candid testimony will inspire you to look for hope, healing, and the gentle leading of God—even in the most unexpected places.

    Don't miss this honest, hope-filled conversation. Share this episode with anyone who needs encouragement in the fight for faith, health, or purpose!
