  • The 5-Step Path to Forgiveness After a DNA Discovery (Part 2)
    Jun 29 2026

    What happens after the DNA test changes everything?

    In Part 2 of our conversation, Andrea Lomboy shares a biblical framework for navigating the emotional and spiritual aftermath of an unexpected DNA discovery. Whether you're an NPE (Not Parent Expected), adoptee, donor-conceived, or anyone whose biological identity has been unexpectedly rewritten, this episode offers practical encouragement rooted in faith.

    Andrea walks through her five-step pathway to healing:

    • Acceptance
    • Grief
    • Personal Agency
    • Forgiveness
    • Integration

    Rather than encouraging listeners to "just get over it," Andrea explains why healing is a process—not a moment—and why forgiveness cannot be forced before grief has been honored. Throughout the conversation, she shares Scripture, personal experience, and practical wisdom for rebuilding identity, setting healthy boundaries, and finding peace in Christ after family secrets come to light.

    If you've ever wrestled with questions like:

    • How do I forgive the people who kept this secret?
    • Why does this hurt so deeply?
    • How do I move forward without pretending I'm okay?
    • Where is God in the middle of my DNA discovery?

    ...this episode was created with you in mind.

    No matter how your story began, your identity is not determined by your DNA. Your worth has never changed, and God is still writing your story.

    When God Rewrites Your Story: Finding Grace After a Life-Changing DNA Discovery

    What would you do if a DNA test revealed that everything you believed about your family was wrong?

    In this deeply moving episode of Holy Wreckage, Crystal sits down with Andrea Lomboy, whose DNA discovery uncovered a lifetime of hidden truths and sent her on an unexpected journey of grief, identity, forgiveness, and ultimately, God's incredible faithfulness.

    After believing one man was her father for 40 years, Andrea discovered through DNA testing that he wasn't biologically related to her. Her search for answers eventually led her to meet her biological father for the very first time at 57 years old. What followed was a story of extraordinary grace, healing, and the unmistakable hand of God.

    Rather than allowing bitterness to define her life, Andrea chose to pursue truth while extending grace to both of her parents. Her testimony is a powerful reminder that while a DNA discovery may rewrite your family story, it never changes who God says you are.

    Whether you're an NPE (Not Parent Expected), adopted, donor-conceived, navigating a DNA surprise, or simply walking through a season where your identity has been shaken, this conversation will remind you that your worth has never depended on your circumstances. God is still writing your story.

    In this episode you'll discover:

    • Andrea's incredible DNA discovery story
    • Meeting her biological father after 57 years
    • Processing grief after an unexpected DNA surprise
    • Finding identity in Christ when your family story changes
    • Extending grace while navigating deep emotional wounds
    • How faith became the foundation for healing
