True Comfort


From Black Sheep to Beloved - with Shanda Fulbright

September 12, 2025

In this conversation, Teasi Cannon talks with author and apologist Shanda Fulbright who shares openly about feeling as if she was a mistake or the black sheep of the family and how God’s truth about her identity in Christ has helped her overcome those damaging lies.  They discuss the struggles of comparison, and the necessity of knowledge and obedience in one's faith journey. The conversation emphasizes the importance of knowing God and anchoring oneself in His truth, while also addressing doubts and the assurance of God's love.
