Summary

Tim Timmons joins Ginny Yurich for a deeply honest conversation about grief, cancer, friendship, faith, parenting, and what happens when life turns out nothing like you planned. Given just five years to live more than two decades ago, Tim shares how sorrow reshaped his understanding of God, why he stopped trying to force doors open, and how he learned to trust in the places where he could do nothing at all. From the heartbreak of his parents' divorce to raising four children while living with an incurable illness, this episode is full of wisdom, laughter, and the kind of hope that has been tested by real life. If you've ever wondered how to keep going when the valley feels long, this conversation is for you.
