In this deeply personal episode, Sherry Clausen shares her story through the lens of Psalm 37:4: “Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.” What begins as a simple introduction becomes a powerful testimony of how God reshaped her dreams, healed disappointment, and taught her to trust Him completely.
Sherry reflects on her childhood faith, her love for sports, and how a life-altering knee injury in high school derailed her plans for a career in law enforcement. Wrestling with disappointment and unspoken anger toward God, she pursued other paths—first in sports medicine, then in sociology and counseling—yet still felt an unfulfilled longing.
Everything changed when God began opening doors she never expected. Through a late-night search, Sherry discovered the work of Russ Dizdar and Shatter the Darkness, igniting a calling that aligned perfectly with both her heart for justice and her compassion for the broken. This led her into ministry, investigative work, and eventually a radical step of faith—walking away from traditional employment to trust God as her sole provider.
With warmth and honesty, Sherry shares real-life stories of God’s provision—from a surprise $20 for a much-needed haircut to an unexpected supply of toilet paper—reminding listeners that God truly cares about every detail of our lives. These moments became sacred milestones in learning that security is found not in finances, but in the faithfulness of a loving Father.
This episode is an invitation to anyone who feels the tug of God’s calling but fears the cost. Sherry encourages listeners to believe that God is not setting them up to fail—He is leading them into a deeper, richer relationship with Him.
Whether you are discerning your purpose, facing a major transition, or simply learning to trust God more fully, this episode will remind you:
He sees you. He knows your heart. And He is faithful to His Word.
Walk in peace, friends.
