Life Comes at You Fast | Grief, Comebacks, and Trusting God in the Storm E11
from Build Different · host Danny Woodhead & Paul Lanphier
What do you do when life hits hard and grief shows up unexpectedly? In this episode, we talk about real suffering, real faith, and whether God is still good in the middle of it all. But first, we begin with arthritis complaints, fake medical credentials, tornado sirens, and whether neck tattoos are spiritually responsible decisions. Along the way, we debate Adam Sandler movies, sneaking into theaters, high school basketball trauma, and if a middle-aged man could lead a powerhouse football team to a state title.But then life gets real. A fresh family crisis opens up an honest conversation about grief, memory loss, and watching someone you love slowly fade. In the middle of it all, we wrestle with one big question: Is God still good when suffering shows up? And how do we actually receive comfort so we can give it to others?Build Different Podcast | Episode 11 | Danny Woodhead & Paul Lanphier | Released 02/23/2026Watch on YouTube:https://youtu.be/haHDb7-nzTUKey Moments00:00 – Elite Medical Advice“Three enemas and four ibuprofen” might not be FDA approved.02:34 – Windex Heals EverythingMy Big Fat Greek Wedding treatment for arthritis pain.06:32 – We’re Doctors… of LifeNot licensed.
