Summary
May is Brain Cancer Awareness month, and today's storyteller pays tribute to this disease that affects more than 25,000 people annually.
Emily Lombardo, who shared at our Trussville, Alabama live gathering, recounts her journey of walking alongside her husband as he was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer.
In this heartfelt story, Emily helps us see the divine goodness of our Father as she details the ways in which her community showed up for her and her family as the hands and feet of Christ.
As she shares, you will also see the love between a husband and wife who know, without a doubt, that Jesus alone is their strength, their home, and their victory.
IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:
- Draw strength from your community, but let your ultimate strength be from God.
- Sometimes, God gives the biggest battles to His strongest soldiers.
- In the midst of terrible suffering, God never leaves you and can be found in the details.
