Chronic Joy®
Making a difference one precious life at a time.
Chronic Joy is a global resource ministry dedicated to compassionately serving all those affected by chronic illness, mental illness, chronic pain, and disability by providing accessible, easy-to-use, faith-based educational resources and publications.
CHRONIC ILLNESS
As we journey through diagnoses and treatment plans, loss and isolation, sadness and grief, we can also discover the gifts of laughter, joy, and hope along the way.
CAREGIVERS
A caregiver’s role can be rewarding and exhausting, difficult and joy-filled, meaningful and frustrating, isolating and inspiring—discovering God’s joy as you care for your loved ones.
MENTAL ILLNESS
Stigma, isolation, loneliness, and shame often follow a diagnosis of mental illness. With God, mental illness has no stigma. You are His precious child, deeply loved and fully accepted.

From the Blog
Do You Hear My Prayer
Chronic illness is an extremely heavy burden. It can feel so heavy we can wonder if God truly is He who says He is and if His promises are true. Our hearts wrestle with these huge questions and they sometimes fill us with doubt but we can look to God with certainty that no matter our pain, we are not alone.
Growing in Compassion
I find joy in my brokenness – in my chronic illness, in my disability, in my pain – because it becomes a bridge that connects my story to another person's story. Usually, my cane provides an opportunity to connect with a stranger and show them compassion in a way that I simply could not have done otherwise.
