From Fixer to Faithful, A Journey of Loss: Jackie Freeman E102

Jackie Freeman recounts her experiences as a caregiver for her husband who battled stage four glioblastoma and how she discovered the strength and presence of the Lord during the hardest times. She also shares the transition from feeling responsible for fixing everything in life to learning to trust God fully. Jackie found solace and healing in unexpected places, including writing music and immersing herself in pickleball, which inspired her to write Pickleball Parables. The conversation touches on themes of surrender, God's faithfulness, and finding joy and purpose even in the midst of grief.Verses referenced: Psalm 23; Luke 8:39; Hebrews 12:1-3 00:00 Introduction: The Illusion of Control03:24 Jackie's Journey of Surrender03:41 The Struggle with Control and Codependency06:17 Finding Strength in Vulnerability07:01 The Healing Power of Honesty09:20 The Comfort of God's Presence11:07 A Caregiver's Faith and Strength17:38 The Final Moments and God's Faithfulness29:48 From Grief to Pickleball: A Surprising Healing Journey34:46 Conclusion: Resting in God's Unshakeable ArmsContact Jackie: JackieFreemanAuthor.comPickleball ParablesContact Kelly: KellyHall.org
