If you're at all familiar with this podcast, then you know that Robin's son's leukemia has played an important part of Robin and Rachel's journey. It was this cancer that actually connected their lives and sharing Matt's story and God's faithfulness has become part of their shared passion. So, it is with heavy hearts that they recorded this episode, sharing publicly that Matt's leukemia has relapsed.

In this episode, Robin transparently shares the events of the past few days and the heartbreak that the diagnosis has brought to her family and so many people who love the May family. She also shares how listeners can join them in the long battle ahead and become a part of #teammatt.

Show Notes:

6:30 Robin explains why it is necessary for Matt to be treated at the University of Kansas Medical Center rather than in Columbia or St. Louis like before.

10:00 As much as Robin and the family hate not being able to be in the hospital beside Matt, here are some of the ways God is using the situation to grow them all.

13:30 Here's the verse that God is using to speak truth to Robin and why.

17:30 Rachel shares how the diagnosis is shaping her picture of God.
