Was so blessed as I listened to these! Vaneetha does an amazing job of blending the hard realities of suffering while drawing the listener to see the goodness of God. So encouraging to hear from the multiple fellow sufferers she interviews. Will definitely listen to all of these over and over. Thank you vaneetha for providing this quality resource!
Thank you so much for investing in those who are suffering! Your podcast is timely, practical, honestly raw!
So encouraging for Christians who experience suffering. Vaneetha and her guests are authentic about the difficulties in life, while staying hopeful and encouraging. Not with platitudes or ‘easy answers’ but with the truths they’ve held on to through the worst storms. I’ve been strengthened & encouraged by these conversations.
Vaneetha doesn’t shy away from asking the hard questions about the hard things that happen in life. The people she interviews are honest about how they continue to live a difficult life but still continue to trust in God and His plan. Their words give so much hope.
Love listening to this podcast! Full of encouragement and pointing to Christ during the trials we face in this life.
