In this heartfelt episode, Murray and Tricia talk about what it really means to see God as a loving Father—not as a distant judge or master. Together, they explore how our hearts need healing to fully receive His love, especially when our experiences with earthly fathers have been marked by distance or pain.

Tricia shares her personal journey of discovering God as her Father. Growing up in a home where affection was scarce and the phrase “children should be seen and not heard” was common, she didn’t realize how deeply those early experiences had shaped her view of God until years later. Everything began to change during a powerful encounter with God in 1988 at the Toronto Blessing Church, where she began to experience the Father’s love in a whole new way.

Through inner healing sessions using John Sanford’s materials and deep encounters with God’s presence, Tricia found freedom and restoration. She also shares how God helped her love her earthly father in a supernatural way—leading to a beautiful story of perseverance, forgiveness, and reconciliation that ended with her father’s final words: “I love you.”

Murray and Tricia reflect on how healing can sometimes feel like we’re going backward—but in truth, it’s God making room in our hearts for a deeper revelation of His love. They also highlight resources like Jack Frost and Peter Jackson’s teachings on the Father’s heart for those who want to go deeper in their own journey.

How was Tricia able to walk out such deep healing and love? Stay tuned—her answer unfolds in the next episode.
