“Suffering is intended to make our souls brave.”
Joni Eareckson Tada
It’s a broken world and suffering comes at us in many shapes and sizes. It may be a disability, chronic illness, loneliness, or heartache.
Joni Eareckson Tada has lived through more than 5 decades of quadriplegia without the use of her hands, two rounds of breast cancer, and faces daily chronic pain. She knows a lot about suffering, but she has also become well-acquainted with courage and perseverance.
On the podcast, Joni explains where she finds the strength to continue on in the midst of new challenges and what she has learned about the power of example. Your courage in the face of suffering will breed courage in others, so use your brokenness to bless others!
“We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.”
2 Corinthians 4:8–10
