🎙️ Unlocking Faith S2E5 | The Sandwich Generation

In this episode of Unlocking Faith, hosts Marquis Wadley and Dr. Emory Berry Jr. have a heartfelt, faith-centered conversation about the sandwich generation—those caring for aging parents while still raising children and supporting grandchildren 🥪👵🏾👶🏾.

💬 The hosts unpack the emotional, spiritual, and financial weight that comes with being pulled in multiple directions, while exploring what Scripture says about honoring parents, raising children, and navigating exhaustion without guilt. They talk honestly about boundaries, self-care, and why feeling worn out doesn’t mean you lack faith—it means you’re human.

🙏🏾 This episode offers encouragement for caregivers who feel stretched thin, reminding listeners that God sees the unseen labor, values rest, and calls us to carry responsibility with wisdom and grace.

🎧 Tune in, reflect, and be reminded—you don’t have to carry it all alone.
