Facing life's toughest trials can either strengthen or shatter one's faith.
Long-term suffering often leaves us yearning for miraculous interventions, yet this doesn't happen to everyone who cries out to God.
In this episode, host Helen Todd explores an incredible journey of finding purpose in and through suffering with author Ben Locke. Ben opens up about his severe illness that abruptly halted his promising career as a collegiate athelete, overcoming the trauma of sexual abuse and how he found solace in writing, a therapeutic outlet that eventually led to his journal being published by Zondervan.
Through Ben's heartfelt narrative, this episode navigates the immense struggle of maintaining belief amidst personal crises. Ben shares the raw and often painful process of stripping away superficial identities to discover a deeper connection with God. Listen to his candid reflections on wrestling with feelings of anger, loss, and confusion, and learn how his gradual journey towards true understanding of faith offers a relatable and comforting perspective for those dealing with similar hardships.
Ben's story reveals a profound truth about enduring pain and finding divine purpose. This episode highlights the delicate balance of living with chronic pain and emotional trials, emphasizing the realization of God's sufficiency and grace.
