Faith When Healing Doesn’t Come: Living with Chronic Illness | Susie Larson

from The Women of Joy Show

Today on the show, I sat down with Susie Larson to have an honest and hope-filled conversation about chronic illness, faith, and trusting God when healing doesn’t come.If you or someone you love is walking through chronic health issues, autoimmune disease, long-term sickness, or unexplained pain, this episode is for you.Susie shares from her own personal journey of battling chronic illness and how it has shaped her faith in ways she never expected. We talk about the emotional, spiritual, and mental toll that chronic illness brings and why so many women carry shame, isolation, and silent suffering in these seasons.We also address the tension many believers feel between faith and healing, including:What to do when you’re praying but not getting betterHow to trust God when your body feels like it’s failing youThe dangers of “formula faith” and harmful theology around healingHow to hold onto hope in the middle of ongoing painThis conversation is both deeply personal and incredibly practical. If you’ve ever wondered, “Where is God in my suffering?” or “Why hasn’t He healed me?”—you are not alone.There is space for your questions. There is grace for your struggle. And there is still hope.If Susie is new to you, she is a bestselling author, national speaker, and host of the popular radio show Susie Larson Live. She is passionate about helping people experience the presence of God in the middle of real-life challenges.Listen in and be encouraged…you can have strong faith even in chronic illness.. . . .
