Our Guest Trisha Frost
SID: Welcome. Welcome to my world where it’s naturally supernatural. My guest was so stuck because of past hurts, trauma, pain, her marriage, her family, unbearable. But she got supernaturally unstuck and she says she knows how to not only get you unstuck, but when you get unstuck, your marriages will be the way God determined them to be, your relationship with your children will be unstuck and your relationship with God will be unstuck. So Trisha, did you agree that your husband, who is now in Heaven, Jack Frost, was an amazing combination. He was one of the most adventurous humans on Earth, but he was also one of the most wounded humans on Earth. That’s quite a package. And he went to a conference. Your marriage was like most of your marriages, kind of good one day, bad another day. You know what I’m talking about. And he went to a conference, and it totally changed him. In fact, Jack was such an adventurous person, let’s go to a clip from the last time I interviewed him on television.
[Begin video]
JACK FROST: Father God comes into my closet and takes me in his arms, and helps me. And for 45 minutes—
SID: Excuse me, Jack, I’m hearing what you’re saying. What do you mean God helped you? What does that mean?
JACK FROST: God helped me and I had such a need of comfort. I had never felt comforted. I was 44 years old and consumed with fear.
SID: Are you telling me that you felt like I just felt, that God did that?
JACK FROST: Yes. I could feel the arms of God around me.
[End video]
SID: I tell you, I told you he was adventurous. But I have to tell you, Trisha, I’m still not comfortable with a man jumping in my lap. How tall was he?
TRISHA: 6-5.
SID: 6-5. How would like a 6-5 man to jump in your lap? But now, Jack’s parents were alcoholics. He was almost a tyrant at home. Is that fair?
TRISHA: Pretty much, yeah, pretty much.
SID: Okay. Your background. Now you were raised in a very Christian family, but very legalistic.
TRISHA: Right.
SID: And your father had a, what was it, a heart attack at a young age, and you went from middle class to barely getting by.
TRISHA: Right.
SID: What is it about us humans that whatever our father is like, that’s what we attribute God to? What causes that?
TRISHA: Well I think it’s the first relationship with a male figure in our life. You know, it’s our earthly father and it’s out of that relationship that we learn how to be comfortable in the presence of love. And if we don’t have that, you know, that love, you know, expressed to us, you know, in ways that nurture us, you know, that cause us to want to live, that cause us to be affirmed and feel comfortable, you know if our basic needs aren’t taken care of in this relationship, it kind of helps us, or really it really makes us see Father God in the same light that we see our earthly [unintelligible].
SID: So you know, she gets married like everyone, and what is the image of a marriage? Not your parents. The image of a marriage is Hollywood. So it wasn’t Hollywood, was it.
TRISHA: No it wasn’t. Because Jack grew up in a very wounded home with wounded parents and they didn’t know how to get, they did not know how to meet his needs. You know, we all have needs of love, affirmation, security and purpose. And Jack’s family only provided those conditions if Jack was performing. You know, if he was being the best kid or if he was the best tennis player, or if he was living life doing everything that made his parents look good. And so Jack was kind of, you know, he wasn’t rebellious or whatever, but he just never felt valued just because he was a guy, just because he was a kid, you know, he never had that place of security. Like when Jack jumped in your lap, it might have made…you felt uncomfortable.
SID: It did.
TRISHA: But Jack was very comfortable at that time in his life. He was very comfortable with the presence of a father.
SID: Okay. Both of you, we might say, were love starved.
TRISHA: Right.
SID: And you were literally each sucking the life out each other because you were so love starved. Is that unusual?
TRISHA: I think that it’s very usual. I get to travel all over the world and everywhere I go, I see marriages in the same shape. Some marriages were in worse shape than ours because so many people were wounded. And here’s a great statistic I learned not too long ago. Eighty percent of kids under the age of 18 years old today are living in homes where the birth father is not there. So can you imagine what’s going on in that home, you know? Whenever they’re put in a home or an environment to where there’s no environment created for them to feel value, for them to feel like, okay, somebody is proud of me. Somebody sees what’s inside of me and they want me to have a purpose, and they want to affirm me. Where I travel, that’s most places. That’s most homes that I see. I mean, over 80 percent. That’s unheard of.
SID: When Jack went to a conference, he comes home and he does something, well he repents. Candidly, because I know you’re a transparent person.
TRISHA: Right.
SID: When he came home, he went out a tyrant. He comes home. He apologizes for his actions. What did you think initially?
TRISHA: I was suspicious. You know, I mean, I had seen Jack say I’m sorry, you know, before, but his “I’m sorry” was “I’m sorry, but if you hadn’t had done this I wouldn’t have behaved that way.” Or “I’m sorry for this, but…” You know, there always was an excuse attached to his repentance.
SID: A justification.
TRISHA: Right, a justification. Why he did what he did. This time he comes in and there’s, his demeanor is different. There’s a gentleness, you know, there’s not a hardness, you know. And so I’m suspicious. I’m like, okay, this is going to change any minute. But then he comes in and he humbles himself, and he takes ownership. See, Jack had never done that. It was always, “I’m sorry, but if you did not do…” This time it was, “I’m sorry, Trisha, I realize that I have hurt and wounded you.”
SID: Hold that thought.
TRISHA: Sure.
SID: I want to find out exactly what he said, because it transformed him. I want to find out what happened to him. What transformed him, because once he was transformed, Trisha was transformed. When she was transformed, their family was transformed. Be right back.
