Some people wrote you off. Some people counted you out.

But what they didn’t understand is this: God is still working on you.

In this powerful episode of Kicking It Live with Lady Cassaundra, the message is clear — growth is a process, and purpose doesn’t stop just because life gets hard.

Featuring Ike Moore and Unrestricted Praise, this episode brings real testimony, real music, and real conversation about faith, family, and trusting God through every stage of life.

From the opening prayer to the live worship moments, this show is filled with truth that hits home:

• You are not finished yet
• Every test and trial is working for your good
• God is shaping you, even when you don’t understand the process
• Sometimes you feel stuck, but God is redirecting you

One of the most powerful reminders from this episode: “I’m not what I ought to be, but thank God I’m not what I used to be.”

This is more than an interview. This is a full gospel experience.

With live performances like “Lord You’ve Been So Good” and “No Goodness of My Own,” Unrestricted Praise delivers music that reminds you of God’s faithfulness, even when you can’t explain it all.
