INSTANT TAKEAWAYS

1 | BE HIS HANDS AND FEET 

God will put people in your life that are in pain so you can be his hands and feet. It can be scary to step out in this way but allow God to guide you in your words and deeds.

2 | DON’T ALWAYS TRY TO FIX

We don’t have to fix the pain; we need to be ok just sitting in the silence alongside them.

3 | PREPARE YOUR HEART

Prepare your own heart so that when tough questions are asked you can draw on what you know to be true about God.

SHOW NOTES

Every day it seems that there is someone else that has a cancer diagnosis, is dealing with a death, or is suffering in a time of waiting. Often as women, the first thing we want to do is fix it. Join Stacy, Jacque, and special guests Debbie McSparran and Amy Whitehouse as they discuss some fresh ideas as well as some things we need to be cautious of when supporting someone going through suffering or pain.
