Have you ever felt like your life took a turn you didn't plan, and you're holding tight to what you thought that life would be? You're grieving the gap between the ideal and your reality.
Maybe you're wondering, "Can joy really exist in this season of crazy chaos where my circumstances feel so utterly unfair?"
If that's you, then I want you to take a deep breath and listen to today's episode because we are talking about a surrender that makes you stronger. An embracing of the cross rather than fighting tooth and nail against your circumstances that are making you angry and frustrated.
In this episode of Persistence in Prayer, we're joined by Monica Herber, a Catholic life and marriage coach, whose journey through infertility, adoption, and parenting a child with disabilities has deeply shaped her faith and outlook on life.
Her passion is to help struggling Christians find real joy when the unexpected happens.
Together, we explore themes of grief, anticipatory loss, the difference between carrying our true cross and unnecessary baggage, and the daily practice of persistent, honest prayer in the midst of life's chaos.
