Monday, 15 December, 2025
Cheryl Scruggs is a Biblical Counselor, podcaster, speaker, and author of Thriving Beyond Belief and co-author of I Do, Again, with her husband Jeff Scruggs. In this episode of Sparking Wholeness, Erin shares a faith-centered, therapy-informed conversation with Biblical counselor Cheryl Scruggs about navigating unexpected seasons. Cheryl shares her personal journey of marital struggles, spiritual awakening, and eventual reconciliation, which became the basis for her book “The Thriving Beyond Belief,” exploring themes of personal growth and emotional connection. You’ll learn why grief often shows up when life shifts, why rushing emotional processing can keep us stuck, and how faith invites both trust and truth in the middle of uncertainty. Life doesn’t always unfold the way we expect. When plans change, it can leave us feeling disoriented, grieving, and unsure how to move forward. This episode is for anyone walking through change, disappointment, or a season that looks nothing like they imagined, and needs reassurance that thriving doesn’t require bypassing pain. Key Topics: - Cheryl’s personal story of divorce and reconciliation with her husband. - Emotional processing and grief during unexpected life changes - Faith and resilience when plans fall apart - Why thriving isn’t about fixing circumstances - Staying grounded and regulated through uncertainty - Finding God’s presence in seasons you didn’t choose Website: www.jeffandcherylscruggs.com Cheryl’s new book: https://jeffandcherylscruggs.com/product/tbb-book/ Podcast: Thriving Beyond Belief To follow Cheryl on Instagram, head to @cherylscruggs.
