190 | I Was Sinking…But Now I Am Singing Patrick Booth

“I Was Sinking… But Now I Am Singing.”

That’s the title of my newest podcast episode — and honestly, it’s the story of my life.

Over the last several years, I’ve walked through seasons that stretched me, broke me, refined me, and ultimately reminded me of one truth:
God is not done writing your story.

In the episode, I share moments where I could honestly say:
🔸 I was overwhelmed… but God provided.
🔸I was stretched thin… but God held us together.
🔸I was tired… but God showed up quietly and consistently.
🔸I was heartbroken… but God surrounded us with hope.
🔸I was uncertain… but God opened new doors.
🔸I was stepping into the unknown… but God guided every step.

From the shutdown in 2020…
to my dad’s fall…
to therapy, transitions, loss, hospital stays, leadership changes, and new chapters…
God has been faithful in every single season.

Not once has He failed.
Not once has He abandoned.
Not once has He wasted the pain.

This episode is for the leader who feels like they’re in their own “I was…” moment right now.

Maybe you’re overwhelmed.
Maybe you’re grieving.
Maybe you’re uncertain about the future.
Maybe you’re carrying more than anyone knows.

If that’s you, hear this:

But God has a different plan.
He is working.
He is present.
He is faithful.
And He is not done with your story.

Leadership isn’t about perfection.
It’s about perseverance.
It’s about faith.
It’s about trusting the One who holds every chapter — even the ones we wouldn’t have chosen.

If this resonates, I’d love for you to listen to the full episode and share it with someone who needs the reminder.

Keep leading.
Keep trusting.
And keep praising Him… even in the storm.
