Beauty For Ashes , Featuring Bryan and Alyssa Lowe

In this vulnerable and deeply moving episode of LINC Talks, Pastor Bobby sits down with Bryan and Alyssa Lowe to recount the unexpected, high-impact crisis that reshaped their lives, their family, and their church. When devastating news involving Bryan's father—a founding pastor—came to light, it triggered not only a personal reckoning, but a public firestorm that thrust their small-town church into the national spotlight.

What followed was more than just a leadership transition gone wrong—it was a season marked by loss, abandonment, and emotional exhaustion. Bryan and Alyssa open up about the pain of isolation, the deafening silence from those they once leaned on, and how God used unlikely connections to bring support, hope, and healing.

Together, they share hard-won insights on navigating trauma while still leading others, what forgiveness without positional restoration looks like, and how they found strength in sonship and the presence of God. This episode is a raw invitation for pastors, leaders, and believers alike to lean into grace, community, and the power of beauty for ashes. Only God can restore in such a way.
