When life doesn’t go the way we expect, how do we respond? In this episode of The Something New Show, we unpack the ancient wisdom of Proverbs 13:12:
“Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.”

Through personal stories of walking through childhood cancer, sports injuries, and family challenges, we explore:

• Why our response is our responsibility (and how to live that out as parents)
• How to grieve honestly while still holding on to hope
• Practical ways to help your kids stay resilient through setbacks
• The power of modeling emotional health, gentle words, and forgiveness in your home
• Anchoring your family in faith during uncertain times

If you’ve faced disappointment, grief, or unexpected detours in life, this conversation will remind you that hope and healing are possible.
