The OneFamily Podcast
Families connected to the US Foster Care system face many challenges. Vulnerable and at-risk families need continued support to rise above their situation and raise their children in a healthy way. Foster and adoptive families also need support to help them do what God calls them to do. Relative caregivers must be supported as they step into the role of caring for their grandchildren. This support provides stability for these families who are on the frontlines.
OneFamily's mission is to engage, equip, and empower bio families, foster families, adoptive families, and relative caregivers through wholehearted community support. Because when the community supports its families, the families within that community flourish.

In this honest and hope-filled episode of the OneFamily Podcast, Stephen Hogue welcomes guest T.C. for a powerful conversation about identity, hidden struggles, and the path to true freedom in Christ. T.C. shares his personal testimony of battling secret addiction, anger, and shame while even serving in ministry — and how God brought healing, restoration to his marriage, and a renewed understanding of purpose.
Together they unpack why willpower alone can’t break strongholds, how shame keeps people stuck in silence, and why freedom begins with knowing who you are as a child of God. This episode offers encouragement for men and women facing addiction, secrecy, or discouragement, along with practical and spiritual steps toward healing.
If you or someone you love feels trapped, this conversation is a reminder: no past is too deep for grace, and breakthrough is possible when we surrender to the Spirit and step into the light.
