Have you ever been in a seemingly hopeless situation? A situation so dire that you despaired of ever seeing change or healing?
Many of us have been there...or are there right now.
Addiction, divorce, unfaithfulness, father wounds, mother wounds, abuse, hardened hearts, and a host of other painful issues are constantly manifesting themselves in our lives.
And while different situations present different challenges, the underlying truth remains the same.
Namely, that no matter how bad things may look, God is faithful and in control.
It's certainly not always easy to see, but it's the truth.
Just ask my guest on today's Art of Catholic podcast.
Author Kevin Wells found himself in a seemingly hopeless situation when his wife’s alcoholism began to tear their lives apart.
But as he trudged through years of pain, Kevin gradually learned to rest his head on the Sacred Heart of Jesus and allow himself to be stripped bare like Christ on the Cross.
And eventually, through the miraculous intervention of a saintly priest, his wife was healed, his family was redeemed, and his pain was turned into joy.
Full of heartache, struggle, hope, and healing it's a story you need to hear.
In this podcast, Kevin shares powerful insights about:
-
The crucial role of patience in the face of dire situations
-
Why prayer is our refuge in the face of intense suffering and despair
-
What he would differently if he could go back to when it first began
-
St. Teresa of Avila's guidance in the face of pain
-
Practical advice for dealing with extremely difficult situations
-
And more...
Get ready to hear a powerful story of pain, bondage, and finally, exhilarating redemption, that puts on full display the love, mercy and power of God to overcome any situation - no matter how difficult.
God bless!
Matthew
