Untangled Faith

99: I Didn’t Sign Up For This. Guest: Sarah Frazer


Listen Later

For some reason, this fall has brought a steady stream of voices telling about what it’s life when life is difficult. I don’t say “yes” to every pitch, but when someone raises their hand and bravely says “The life I’m living isn’t what I signed up for”, I pay attention.

 

I pay attention because that’s my life.

And, I suspect it’s how you feel about your own life.

Author Sarah Frazer joins me for a conversation about what it’s like to reckon with a life you didn’t sign up for. I love the messiness and un-resolved-ness of her story. Because I can relate.

In this episode, you will:

  • Hear how Sarah found peace and contentment in the midst of life's disruptions and challenges.

  • Learn valuable lessons from the life of Moses in facing interruptions and finding solace in the Lord.

  • See the power of unanswered questions.

  • Hear ways to support others in their times of difficulty by being present, offering authentic comfort, and avoiding clichés.
