Have you ever battled deep discouragement and wondered if God could still use your life? When the weight of sorrow feels unbearable and hope seems distant, it can be hard to see how redemption or restoration could ever come. Yet even in seasons of anguish, God is still working through the care of others and the quiet power of His grace.

In this episode, Tracie is joined by Cindy Healy as they continue the season theme “Cast Down Your Bucket Where You Are” with a moving look at the life of William Cowper. Though marked by pain, doubt, and despair, Cowper’s story reveals the incredible redemption God can bring through faithful friendship and compassion—especially through his bond with John Newton. His life proves that no matter the mental struggles—depression, anxiety, or another illness—God can use anyone to do His work. Together, Tracie and Cindy share how God used Cowper’s trials to produce hymns of deep beauty and hope, reminding us that even in our darkest struggles, He can bring restoration and lasting glory to His name.
