LA Fires 5 Months Later. Stories of Faith and Resilience with Sherry Turner

In this episode, Lisa and Kari welcome back their friend and past guest Sherry Turner to share her powerful story of resilience after losing her home in the Palisades fire earlier this year. Together, they reflect on the devastation of the January fires in Los Angeles, the myths that circulated in the media, and the often-overlooked stories of everyday people who faced loss and stepped into rebuilding. Sherry speaks candidly about her faith, grief, and transformation—from feeling like a refugee to embracing the role of a rebuilder. This heartfelt conversation honors the strength of community, the enduring power of hope, and what it means to turn tragedy into a new chapter.
