Dwayne and Jennifer Roberts
About this episode

Tyler Bertola was a pastor’s daughter whose world collapsed after her father’s moral failures and addiction came to light. What followed wasn’t grace—it was rejection. Her family was removed from ministry, shunned by the church, and left to navigate spiritual trauma alone.

In this powerful conversation, Tyler shares her journey through church hurt, addiction, identity loss, and eventually—radical redemption. From hitting rock bottom in New York City to encountering God’s mercy through unexpected community and motherhood, her story is raw, honest, and full of hope.

If you’ve been wounded by the church or are wrestling with your faith, Tyler’s testimony will remind you that Jesus doesn’t give up on us—even when people do.
