UnqualifiedPK
What happens when the weight of expectations shatters your life?
Being a pastor’s kid doesn’t protect you from divorce, temptation, financial struggle, or losing everything. We’ve lived through it—crossing lines we never thought we would, facing emptiness, and wondering if God could still use us.
UnqualifiedPK (UQPK) is where we tell the raw truth of our messiest moments—not to glorify the pain, but to point to the God who redeems it.
This is a space for anyone who feels too broken, too ashamed, or too far gone. Here, you’ll find stories of hope, healing, and grace that’s bigger than failure.
If you’ve ever felt unqualified—this channel is for you.
Pull up a chair. Let’s talk about the shame, the struggle, and the redemption.
Welcome to UQPK.

Content Warning: In this episode we talk honestly about abortion, shame, and spiritual warfare. Please watch with care if this is a sensitive topic for you.
In Episode 3 of UnqualifiedPK, we share one of the most painful parts of our story: the abortion we had over a decade ago. As two pastor’s kids who “knew better,” this was never something we imagined would be part of our lives or our marriage. But it is. And hiding it nearly destroyed us.
We talk about how that decision affected our relationship, our faith, our sense of identity, and even everyday moments like baby showers and simple arguments in the kitchen. Adrienne shares the deep shame, anger, and “I’m not a real mom” lies she carried for years. Trav shares what it was like to watch her hurt and to wrestle with his own guilt and avoidance.
Most importantly, we talk about Jesus—about what it’s meant to believe that even this was nailed to the cross. We share how confession, transparency, and community have helped bring real healing, and how God has used even this part of our story to bring freedom and hope to others.
If you’ve walked through abortion, are carrying secret shame, or feel like God could never forgive that one thing… this episode is for you. You are not alone, and there is real hope and real grace.
