Ep 9. Prophet & Loss

God Friended Me season 2 episode 9, titled "Prophet & Loss," follows the story of Miles, Cara, Ali, and Rakesh, who are all dealing with their own personal struggles while still trying to help their friend suggestion from the "God" account. Miles is still trying to come to terms with his father's presence in his life, Cara is trying to balance her new job with her relationship with Miles, Ali is dealing with her infertility, and Rakesh is overwhelmed with work.

Meanwhile, Miles gets a friend suggestion for a street performer named Isaiah (played by LaRoyce Hawkins), who claims to be a prophet and has a message from God for Miles. Initially skeptical, Miles soon finds himself being drawn into Isaiah's world of street preaching and prophecy. However, it soon becomes clear that Isaiah's message isn't as straightforward as Miles thought, and Miles must grapple with his own beliefs and what it means to have faith.

At the same time, Cara is dealing with a difficult work situation as she tries to uncover a story that her boss doesn't want her to pursue. As she struggles to balance her professional and personal lives, she finds herself leaning on Miles for support. However, their relationship is put to the test when Miles's involvement with Isaiah brings up some uncomfortable truths about their differing beliefs.

Ali, for her part, is struggling with the idea of never having children, and finds herself seeking solace in her faith. Rakesh, on the other hand, is dealing with his own set of problems - he's been working too much and neglecting his personal life. As the four friends grapple with their own personal struggles, they must also band together to help Miles with his friend suggestion and uncover the truth behind Isaiah's prophecies.

As always, God Friended Me manages to tackle sensitive topics with grace and humor. The episode explores faith, belief, and what it means to have a relationship with God.
