Can chronic illness steal your joy? It might feel like it—especially when your days are filled with pain, fatigue, and unanswered questions. In this episode, I’m sharing a deeply personal reflection on what it means to grieve the version of ourselves we used to be… and how Jesus meets us in that grief.

We’re not just talking about finding joy—we’re talking about how Jesus IS joy. And because He doesn’t change, neither does our access to real, lasting joy—even in our hardest seasons.

If you’ve ever looked at your life and wondered where your joy went, this one’s for you. You are not your diagnosis. You are not forgotten. And your suffering is not the end of your story.
