SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE!

Discover stories of encouragement and hope. Gain new perspectives. Wrestle with hard questions. And learn to thrive in a life with chronic illness, mental illness, chronic pain, and disability.

Your awe-inspiring deeds will be on every tongue;I will proclaim your greatness. (Psalm 145:6)

INSPIRING BLOG POSTS

We all have questions, grief, discouragement, pain, feelings of discontent, and sorrow. Chronic illness just seems to magnify all the issues. There are no pat answers to all our questions. How do we find inspiration when we feel so alone? Could we encourage you to read our inspiring blog posts and webpages that wrestle with the difficult questions and share different perspectives?

Together in radical community, as we tell our own stories, we will find ways to encourage one another and build each other up. Even when we don’t have all the answers, we are encouraged when we see others who struggle as we do. It helps us know we are not alone. We really are sharing life and discovering hope.

 

ENCOURAGEMENT AMID ILLNESS AND PAIN

We have many contributing writers who share thoughtful and heartfelt articles. They are not afraid to write about their struggles or wrestle with difficult circumstances and questions. They explore ways to find joy and peace as well as ways to thrive in a life of chronic illness.

Some posts encourage us to explore the difficulties and to bring our lament to God. There are no quick fixes, and often, our circumstances change very little, but as we read through these stories, we are better able to face our struggles.

By sharing their stories, these writers show us how they work through difficulties. They show us despair but also hope, sorrow but also joy, courage, and endurance. Through their struggles, we might just find a way through ours that leads to peace. God is working in our lives even when we aren’t aware it’s happening.

Renovations

The ringing hammer and whirring saw blade have me thinking about renovations in my own life. I want the updated character and a more beautiful external appearance, but I often want it right now and don’t want to do the required work.
