Episode Details

Your biggest mistakes don’t disqualify you—they often become the very place where God shows His mercy. In this episode, Inés Franklin joins Dr. Jim Burns. She shares her powerful story of brokenness, hard choices, and the moment God revealed His redemptive nature in a way that changed everything. She opens up about facing her past with honesty, navigating the challenges of blending families, and discovering that true healing comes when truth and mercy meet. Together, they unpack what mercy really looks like—and why it’s not about perfection, but a lifelong journey toward wholeness with God.
