381: Relentless Mercy with Joshua Richard

In this episode of Can I Getta Amen, we welcome back Joshua Richards for a deeply honest and redemptive conversation about failure, mercy, community, and the long road of healing.
Joshua shares what’s happened since his last visit—opening up about relapse, broken relationships, and the weight of patterns he couldn’t seem to escape. But even more powerfully, he shares how God met him there—not with rejection, but with relentless mercy.
Together, we explore what it looks like to get back up again and again, the role of authentic community in healing, and how God can redeem even the parts of our story we’re most ashamed of. From walking alongside a dying friend to serving others through ministry, Joshua’s story is a witness to the truth that God never wastes our pain.
This conversation is for anyone who feels stuck in cycles, burdened by failure, or unsure if real change is possible.
If you’ve ever wondered whether God can still use your story… this episode is for you.
