Ep 40: What really happened – A battle no one sees coming

Stephen Stewart Season 2 Episode 40

In this deeply personal episode, I share the story behind my grandfather’s unexpected passing—and the unseen spiritual battle that quietly consumed him in his final days. This is not an attempt to accuse, expose, or shame. It is a warning, a testimony, and an urgent reminder that even the strongest believers can be blindsided by a fight they never saw coming.

My grandfather was a man of faith, character, and integrity—someone who discipled others, loved his family, and spent his life pursuing the will of God. Yet in the end, he became tangled in lies, legalism, and spiritual confusion that slowly eroded the truth he once stood so firmly on. His struggle reveals a sobering reality: none of us are immune to deception, despair, or the weight of trying to earn the righteousness that only Jesus can give.

By sharing this story, my hope is simple—if you’re battling hopelessness, spiritual pressure, shame, or the fear that you’ve drifted too far from God, I want you to know there is another way. There is freedom. There is healing. And there is a Savior who carries the weight you were never meant to hold.

This episode is for anyone who feels overwhelmed, unworthy, or quietly losing the fight inside their own mind. You are not alone—and the battle you don’t see coming can be defeated by the One who fights for you.
