Monday, August 11th: In this powerful rebroadcast, Jon Spencer reflects on life, faith, and the unwavering peace that God offers — not in the absence of hardship, but right in the middle of it. Through deeply personal stories, Jon shares the journey he and his wife Marci have walked together, from his lymphoma diagnosis while they were engaged to her later battle with brain cancer and the lasting effects of traumatic brain injury. He draws hope from the example of faithful friends like Rebekah Shoshik, who trusted God fully even in her final days. Jon unpacks Scripture’s promise that Jesus has overcome the world, explains the deeper meaning of the Holy Spirit as our “Comforter” and Advocate, and encourages listeners to bring their honest emotions before God. Whether in seasons of joy or pain, this episode is a heartfelt reminder that our peace, courage, and rest are found only in Christ’s presence and love.
