It always troubles me when otherwise smart people decide to invoke God when reflecting on completely explainable phenomena. Intellectual laziness is destroying our culture.
He's gonna have some explaining to do!! Time for the carpet dance.

On what basis do you pull that particular number out of your ass?
Thankful to hear there are no fatalities. It appears the PIC held a Commercial Certificate with Instrument Rating as well as CFI and CFII ratings.
Looking at the METAR for KRST 30 minutes prior to the crash, I can't help but question why he thought he would be able to successfully complete the approach: METAR KRST 022354Z 14012KT 1/4SM R31/1000V1200FT FG VV001 03/02 A2994 (for those unfamiliar, that's a ceiling of 100ft and 1/4 mile visibility). Icing may have also been a possibility.
It's unfortunate that the pilot didn't divert to Mason City, IA only 26 miles away. The METAR was: METAR KMCW 022353Z AUTO 14008KT 10SM CLR 08/03 A2993 (clear skies, light winds, 10 miles visibility).

could this be a case of him having the OBS set to the wrong heading?
