When life seems to unravel all at once, will you trust that God is still there?

In this deeply moving episode of Latter-Day Lights, Scott and Alisha sit down with lifelong Latter-Day Saint—Tiffaney Castañeda—as she shares her remarkable journey of faith through unimaginable trials and unmistakable miracles.

From her daughter’s near-fatal battle with autoimmune hepatitis, down to the sudden and unexpected passing of her youngest daughter, every step of Tiffaney’s story reveals the Lord’s hand at work in the details. Through moments of heartbreak, healing, and grief, Tiffaney’s experiences testify that miracles are not reserved for scripture—they unfold quietly in hospital rooms, on long drives, and in the smallest tender mercies that remind us we are never alone.

Through it all, Tiffaney testifies that God not only hears our prayers, but speaks to us in the quiet moments when we need Him most. Her story is one of courage, surrender, and the kind of faith that endures through both the good and bad—a reminder that even in our darkest hours, the Lord keeps His promises.
