Does God Care About Cuss Words?
In this raw and unfiltered episode of Troubled Past, Jarod Johnson takes listeners deep into a mix of heavy stories and honest reflections. From the tragic case of Iryna Zaruska, to the thought of dying slowly and alone, Jarod shares what it means to face mortality and the way our world sometimes fails the people who need us most.
He opens up about his own struggles with focus and reading, and how audiobooks have become a tool to keep his mind sharp when pages feel impossible. The episode also takes a hard look at a disturbing trend — people choosing to film someone’s last moments instead of stepping in to help.
And finally, Jarod wrestles with questions of faith: Does God really care about things like cuss words? Or is God far beyond the small rules and labels we’ve attached to spirituality? It’s a conversation that blends grief, curiosity, doubt, and the search for meaning in a complicated world.
If you’ve ever questioned faith, felt frustrated by society’s lack of compassion, or just needed to hear someone get real about life’s hardest questions — this episode is for you.
