On Suffering and Perspective | Laurie Short | DD 51

Are you or someone you love in a season of suffering? Whether it's the suffering that comes from loneliness and unfulfilled hopes, or the heartache that comes with illness or loss, author and teacher Laurie Short has comfort for you. In her new book, When Changing Nothing Changes Everything: The Power of Reframing Your Life, Laurie talks about the ability to expand your perspective by reframing your life stories. She shares a very personal story of how when she finally got engaged at forty-three years old, it ended in a dissolved relationship. She also shares (with great joy) how God brought her just the right man at forty-nine years old. I hope that it gives you courage to love your one beautiful life - even the painful parts - and that it brings you some comfort in whatever you might be grieving. Laurie is a wife, stepmom, speaker and author based out of Santa Barbara, California. I can't wait for you to meet her! Laurie's book on grace and suffering, Finding Faith in the Dark: When the Story of Your Life Takes a Turn You Didn't Plan. Dear Daughters Episode 45 with Suzanne Stabile about the enneagram Jeremiah 29.11, and the part of the chapter most people skip over… Jeremiah 29.4-11 "Crying is all right in its way while it lasts. But you have to stop sooner or later, and then you still have to decide what to do." ~ C.S. Lewis Sign up for my weekly-ish newsletter here. Schedule a consultation here.
