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.

It’s Thanksgiving week, and after a few heavy episodes, we wanted to sit down, breathe a little, and talk about gratefulness—not in a cheesy way, but in a real, practical, “this actually helps my anxiety” kind of way.
In this episode of UnqualifiedPk, we share some of the things we’re genuinely thankful for right now: our home and this little podcast corner, the wild journey of doing a show together as a married couple, our blended family and co-parenting story, the community sports have brought into our lives, and yes… our 85-pound blanket-loving American Bulldog, Bella (and her near-death Thanksgiving caffeine story).
We also get into Philippians 4:6–7 and talk about why Paul’s words about anxiety and thanksgiving hit different when you remember he wrote them from prison. Then we connect that to modern psychology and research that shows practicing gratitude actually lowers stress and anxiety and can bring a real sense of peace.
If the holidays are hard for you—because of grief, family dynamics, or just feeling worn out—we see you. Our prayer is that this conversation gives you a few tools, a little hope, and a reminder that God is near, even when life feels anything but peaceful.
