Episode notes

Some mornings, the pain is loud. In this deeply personal episode, I share openly about living with muscular dystonia, what it means to endure in hard circumstances, and how faith, community, and personal standards can help us pursue our calling even when life feels unbearable. You’ll hear the inspiring story of Rob Oliver, a quadriplegic author of Still Walking, lessons from Ed Mylett’s The Power of One More, and two scriptures that remind us God’s grace is enough. If you’ve ever asked, “How do I keep going when life hurts?”—this conversation is for you.

Key Scriptures:

  • James 1:2–4 — “Consider it pure joy… because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.”
  • 2 Corinthians 12:9 — “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
