363. I Got Lost in Tokyo—And God Taught Me Something Bigger | A Faith Fail Story

What happens when confidence turns into assumption—and a quick morning run turns into a full-blown faith fail?

In this episode of The Rob Skinner Podcast, Rob shares a true story from Japan when he got completely lost in rural Tokyo just hours before preaching his own sermon. What started as a peaceful sunrise run quickly became a humbling reminder of what happens when we lean on our own understanding instead of trusting God’s direction.

Using Proverbs 3:5–6, this episode explores:

How small assumptions can lead to big detours

Why we often feel spiritually “lost” in life and ministry

How God graciously rescues us when we finally stop and ask for direction

A powerful reminder that trusting God straightens paths—even after wrong turns

If you’ve ever felt disoriented, overwhelmed, or far from where you thought you’d be, this message is for you.

👉 One-sentence takeaway:
A short detour becomes a long disaster when we stop trusting God’s direction.
