Hi, I'm Susie Larson.

Thanks for listening to this podcast from Susie Larson Live.

It's only just a matter of around.

Welcome to Susie Larson

live. Always honored to get to spend this time with you. In fact, I look forward to bringing you

conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk, that deepen your

understanding of God's word, and that heightens your awareness of his very real

presence in your life.

Well, we have a really important show for you today, and I'm praying you can lean in

and be fully present with me today.

You know, everyone has endured trauma or heartbreak of some kind.

Most everyone, I would say layer upon layer of trauma and heartbreak.

But not everyone has sorted through these experiences in a way

that has brought them to a place of wholeness and healing. And Dr. Dan Allender joins me today.

In fact, we've had him on before. I try to get him on regularly. It's been way too long. And a good

friend of mine who's a doctor pointed out this book. And I'm like, how did I not know about this

book? Dr. Dan Allender wrote the book,

Redeeming Heartache, How Past Suffering Reveals Our True Calling. It is brilliant. It is just powerful.

We got a handful of copies to give away today. You can text the word book to get in on the drawing.

877-933-2484. And Dan writes this says you can push pain away or you could dig deep and find a wellspring of joy

your past pain does not have to dictate your life in fact your heart wounds have uniquely prepared you to

experience more joy so now is the time to answer the call to healing and discover your life's incredible purpose.
