Finding Purpose in Suffering - Walking Through a Child's Cancer Diagnosis and Remission:: Brooke Preus :: [Episode291]


Listen Later

Brooke Preus' life was on a peaceful path for years—and then it veered. Pain and suffering settled upon her family's world with diagnosis on top of diagnosis.

In her story, Brooke, from our Fairhope community, will candidly talk you through her son's blood disorder and cancer journey—but what you'll really get is a rich education on how to suffer well as a follower of Christ.

Through her study of lamentations, deep prayer, and even worshiping in a storage closet for six months, Brooke learned the pathway from heartbreak to hope. She will encourage you to look outward in your own suffering, and to align your heart and will to the Lord's.

In this episode, you will learn:

—The Lord longs to enter into the misery and suffering you're experiencing.

—Share the hope you have in Him even as you suffer—He will put other suffering people in your path.

—When you endure pain with faith in focus, a new purpose is found.
