Gambling Mad with Norman ChadGambling Mad with Norman ChadKatie Ledecky, Monk Scandals, and Just Say 'No' To Starbucks | Ep. 50In this episode of 'Gambling Mad with Norman Chad', Norman covers the big stories no one asked for. He begins with Olympic legend Katie Ledecky, who continues to swim faster than most of us drive. Then, it’s onto his long-running personal mission: the Just Say No to Starbucks campaign — a years-long stand against overpriced espresso, faux Italian cup sizes, and the slow extinction of real American diners.Also in the mix: the Buddhist monk honey pot scandal, a tale of spiritual compromise, blackmail, and some deeply un-monk-like behavior.

In early December 2013, you get pure Katie Hubbard, the quintessential Auburn Tigers football fan. (Really, the "kick 6" game might be one of the greatest moments in sports!) You also see another example of the way Katie wrote out Scripture in her journal as a means of meditating on what God was saying to her. It’s an inspiring model many of us could profitably adopt.2024-03-1110 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here“Katie Hubbard, Beloved Child of God”In the previous podcast, we found Katie Hubbard struggling with the idea that her life, taken by cancer, might be dispensable. Here, we find her breakthrough as she writes out, Romans 8:38: “For I am persuaded that … death … shall not be able to separate us from the love of God.” She goes on to write of herself, “Katie Hubbard, beloved child of God.

The idea behind this comes from 2 Corinthians 10:5, "We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ." In its original context, the verse had to do with combatting false teaching from others. In Katie's situation—and often enough in our own—we deal with internalized false teaching. We doomcast about our future and spend our lives guided by inward fears.

However, everyone was back on their feet for our pilgrimage to Wisconsin to be with family for the holiday.

Consistent with her custom of talking with God about everything, Katie looked up because things were looking up. She offers a tremendous prayer where she reflects on God's abundance and asks him to draw her out of a mindset of poverty and want. "My resources are lacking," she writes, "but you're are infinite through eternity." Her journal is a great reminder to look up when things are looking up.2022-12-1212 minThe Katie Halper ShowThe Katie Halper ShowJeff Sachs On Ukraine Proxy War & Norman Solomon on 'Don't Run, Joe'Patreon only: Jeff Sachs on Anthony Fauci and the lab leak theory. https://www.patreon.com/posts/75690871 Jeff Sachs talks about the proxy war in Ukraine and how the West provoked Russia.

She wrestled with her own anxiety about money and wondered whether she truly trusted the Lord. In characteristic Katie Hubbard fashion, she considers how effortlessly God sends abundant rain and concludes, “You work out of abundance, no limits, vast power, perfect holiness, complete wisdom.”2022-09-2012 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here“Staying Grateful and Staying Honest”As Katie Hubbard lived through her second round of chemo, she found grace from God through the Scriptures that encouraged her not to fear. This was particularly important for her as her hair fell out and she decided to shave it off. Katie’s words during this time teach us how search out the balance between staying grateful and staying honest about your pain.2022-07-2512 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"Chemo, Chemo Brain, And A Toddler"Katie Hubbard was adjusting to life with a toddler (along with 3 older kids) while undergoing her first round of chemo for breast cancer. Things got pretty interesting right away as some of the kids got sick at home, while the fog of ‘chemo brain’ settled on Katie. Throw in insomnia and loss of appetite, and it’s a wonder she could write with the wit she did about her experiences. At the same time, she meditated on the grace that had carried her through these difficult days, knowing that same grace would carry the children, too.2022-06-1515 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here“Despair is Easy. It Takes Hard Work to Find Joy.”When Katie Hubbard started chemotherapy for breast cancer, she stopped writing in her journal but started writing more frequently on her Caring Bridge blog. The world is probably a better place for it, because more people got a window into the practical and emotional challenges of going through cancer treatment for the first time. In this episode, you'll find Katie doing what she can to find the good and express it with humor as she begins chemotherapy for breast cancer.2022-06-0116 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here“If Jesus Had To Suffer, Shouldn’t I?"In mid-April 2009, Katie Hubbard picked up her pen and journal after a few weeks away (recovering from surgery). The three entries from this time all focus on God’s purposes in times of testing and his power in our weakness. Katie also reflects on the fact that Jesus, who never did any wrong, learned obedience through suffering. If “the captain of our faith” suffered, how should we expect to pass through life without suffering, too?2022-05-1609 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things HereWhen You Cannot Journal, TypeFor the first time since receiving her initial cancer diagnosis, Katie Hubbard finally received good news: there was no evidence that her cancer had spread. Though she couldn’t write in her journal (because she had drainage tubes under her arm from the mastectomy), she did post a couple of updates on Caring Bridge about the relief that good new brought. Of course, learning that the worst hadn’t happened gave her the mental space to process the hard things that had happened. In her own words, she almost fainted twice in one day thinking about the surgeries she had been...2022-05-0313 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things HereWaking Up To The Reality of More Bad NewsWhen Katie Hubbard went in for a mastectomy and initial pathology on her breast cancer, she was prepared for good news and bad news. She did not know there was a third option: even worse news. When Katie woke up from anesthesia, she discovered the doctor had to remove all her lymph nodes, putting her at long-term risk of developing lymphedema. It also meant waiting for a pathology report to stage the cancer and move on with treatment. In this bleak hour, Katie relied on Romans 8:28 about how God works for the good of those who love him, no matter...2022-04-1821 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"I Will Have Wounds. Jesus, You Too Have Wounds."In her journal entries for mid-March 2009, Katie Hubbard describes the apprehension she felt after and MRI biopsy to determine whether her breast cancer had spread. “What will today bring?" she asks the Lord. “Good news? Bad news? No news?” This is the tension every person (and family) lives with after an initial cancer diagnosis. In Katie’s case, she received bad news that she would have to have a mastectomy. This led her to a lot of soul-searching and she cried out to God for help. One of the most searching moments you will find her journal comes when she writes...2022-03-2117 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"Avoid Self-Pity. Combat It With Praise And Thanksgiving" S02 | E03As Katie Hubbard lived through the early days of a cancer diagnosis, she faced the fatigue and fear you'd expect. She also took the time to write short entries of prayer to the Lord. Many of us feel like we ought to say something substantial to God when we pray. That's not a bad idea if you can manage it. If you have a one-year-old who won't sleep, an unexpected cancer diagnosis, and worries about how you're going to make it financially, it may be better not to force things, though. In the early days of her cancer diagnosis, Katie...2022-02-2110 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"Is It Possible To Go Through Cancer and Triumph Gloriously?"As Katie Hubbard tried to wrap her mind around her initial diagnosis of breast cancer, she was not traveling alone. The philosopher-pastor Dallas Willard was helping shape her thinking through his book, The Renovation of the Heart. She wondered whether it was possible for God to transform her in the midst of her trials. In her words, "What if all of these tribulations produced perseverance, character, and hope? What if I looked to the future glorying in tribulations, instead of cowering in fear that something might go wrong?" What if your trials could accomplish the same thing in you?

The podcast opens with Katie's prayers and reflections on the normal busy-ness of life with four kids, lots of company, and the stresses of life near the end of the Great Recession. Katie's practice had always been to process her days in prayer to God, often writing out her prayers in her journal. On January 27, 2009, she received word that a biopsy on a mass from her right breast had come back...2022-01-2511 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"I Trust You Jesus ... You Have Always Taken Care of Us"Katie Hubbard journals came to an end the way that her life did, with an expression of trust in Jesus in the midst of the trials with cancer. She still brought her prayers and concerns to the Lord to the very last. She mentioned her own sickness, but she concentrated on how the kids were doing at a new school. She also kept praying for the sale of our house. Katie was, if this expression can be used, a "practical saint". The trials of cancer could no more shake her from her practical concerns than they could her trust in...2022-01-1011 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"Good Tidings. Great Joy. Will I Know Those Two Things Again on Earth?"Katie Hubbard was living through her favorite holiday, Christmas, one final time in 2015. She wondered openly—to her journal if not to the world—whether this would be her last. The angels announced good news of great joy to the shepherds when Jesus was born (see Luke 2:10). Katie wrote poignantly, almost prophetically: "Good tidings. Great joy. Will I know those two things here on this earth again?" In retrospect, the painful answer to that question was, "No." However, it seems significant that Katie phrased the question, "here on this earth." There would be no more good news here on this eart...2021-12-2609 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"I Feel Like Cinderella Going To The Ball"How could a woman living with a terminal cancer diagnosis possibly feel like she was under a benevolent magic spell? For Katie Hubbard, it boiled down to this: she could see example after example of how God had been generous to her. This podcast provides a wonderful window into the power of a proper perspective. When Katie kept her eyes on God—his word and his provision—the world seemed magical even though her life consisted mostly of trips from the bed to the bathroom.2021-12-0611 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"What Do You Do On This Side of the Jordan?"Katie Hubbard was nearing the end of her long journey through life with cancer. She didn't know how close, of course, but she could sense it. Curiously, her Bible reading had taken her from Genesis through the Torah, to the book of Deuteronomy, where Moses contemplates the ways of God on "this side of the Jordan River". He will not cross over. In this podcast, Katie reflects on her everyday life and her deeper meditations on life if the Lord does not allow her to keep living forward. "What do you do on this side of the Jordan?

Two things stand out: First, all her emotional output is directed God-ward. It's gratefulness to God, repentance toward God, and impatience with God ... before God. Second, all her emotional wrestling is done with an open Bible on her lap as she reads Genesis and Exodus. Katie rarely (if ever) engaged in an emotional free-for-all. She usually processed her heart on the pages of her journal through the pages of the Scripture she was reading. If her journals offer...2021-11-1509 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"Did Their Terrible Plight Help Them See The Necessity of Leaving?"It seems almost ironic that Katie Hubbard "happened" to be reading the book of Exodus as cancer forced her to pack her home for a move from Illinois to Wisconsin. She models a very active approach to listening for God's voice as she reads her Bible. At one point she noticed how much more difficult the situation became for the Israelites when Moses came back to deliver them. Perhaps their situation had to grow more difficult so they would see the necessity of leaving. "Like us," is Katie's simple reflection. Cancer had forced a move that she would not have...2021-11-0808 min2 Dumb Blondes2 Dumb BlondesThe Most Interesting Man in the World Season 2 Ep.3In this episode, Josie and Katie are joined by special guest Kenny Stone.

Friends and family were surrounding us to help us prepare our home for the market in Illinois, so that we could move closer to family in Wisconsin. The amount of support we were experiencing was staggering, and Katie never failed to give thanks for it. Yet, as the last line of her journal entry says it best, "We have had so many good things to happen, yet all under...2021-11-0207 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things HereGod Does Not Need Advice About How To Sell A House S01 | E43This episode marks the first entry in Katie Hubbard's last journal, chronicling her faith and hope as she lived with cancer. With characteristic wit, she relays how she advised God that "it only takes one buyer" to sell a house. God responded to her that by saying, "Don't tell me how to sell your house." Katie would have probably said it was a gentle reminder, not a harsh rebuke. She wrote the entry with a smiley face and expressed anticipation about how God would act on our behalf.2021-10-2506 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things HereSurveying The Book Of Job In SadnessOn October 14, 2015 Katie woke up tired and sad on her long road with cancer. What did she do with her feelings in that state? She canvassed the book of Job in the Bible, and wrote out verse after verse in her journal. Those who believe that religion offers only a crutch to people who are suffering might be hard-pressed to account for what she wrote. There are more questions than answers in this journal entry, just as there are in the book of Job itself. What mattered to Katie on her long road with cancer was that she was asking...2021-10-1100 min2 Dumb Blondes2 Dumb BlondesDemons, Hannah Montana, and the Free Masons | Season 2 ep. 2Get your tin foil hats and your bibles ready as Katie and Josie talk about haunted roommates, the Freemasons taking over lives/underwear, and Hannah Montana.2021-10-0141 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"These Circumstances Are Father-Filtered"Katie Hubbard was feeling the stress of cancer and parenting, yet she believed that every circumstance coming at her had been filtered through the hands of a loving Heavenly Father. Some people assume that is a cop out when you can't explain the bitterness of life. Others say things like this when they are desperately grasping at hope. Katie had spent a lifetime cultivating the confidence that every circumstance, including cancer, reached her after it had filtered through the hands of her Heavenly Father.

In this episode, she journals her way through several of the pressures she was feeling, not the least of which was how we would pay for our new home in Wisconsin. In the midst of her processing, she writes out or alludes to several Scriptures that were beckoning her not to worry or to trust in God's provision. The greatest pressure, of course, was "cancer, cancer, cancer," as she says. The final sentence in this podcast is a sobering reminder...2021-08-2308 minBeaming GreenBeaming GreenSustainable Schools Network - Katie NormanEducating our children and making them aware of how to live their lives sustainably is no mean feat.  In this episode, I speak with Katie Norman about her business called the Sustainable Schools Network (SSN).Katie is the chief steward for the organisation that has been in operation for almost two years. The SSN philosophy on Education for Sustainability (EfS) is to engage in an ongoing reciprocal dialogue that explores playful possibilities in our collective educational spaces.  As much as this is an inward, and at times, personal journey for us all, it is very much about creating a...2021-08-1842 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"I Can't Not Move Forward Because I Am Afraid For My Children"In this week's podcast, Katie Hubbard can be found building a fire with her seven year old son, Joe, and pondering what it means to live without fear for your kids in the face of cancer. We were visiting Wisconsin from Illinois, as we made preparations to move to a new place, so Katie could be closer to family for whatever time she had left. This episode finds her revisiting a familiar passage of Scripture from 2 Samuel 7, where God had established King David after many tumultuous years. Katie had been through her share of turmoil over the years, but she...2021-08-0906 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"Dear Lord, Home. Together"Almost no entry Katie Hubbard wrote during her final year of life captures her heart and highest values like the words from July 25, 2015. Only four words say so much. Katie characteristically addresses herself directly to the Lord, in gratitude that she was home from Mexico and together with the kids again. I imagine that she will say something like this to us all when we meet again. This week's podcast also features Tom Hubbard, our oldest son, reading and reflecting on a journal entry Katie wrote at the end of July. It was penned almost 6 months to the day before...2021-07-2616 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"Help Me, Lord, To Hear From You"Katie Hubbard was pursuing alternative cancer treatment but looking to the Lord for help. This was a hallmark of her journey through life with cancer. So much was uncertain ... even the ways of God. However, God's nearness, goodness, and power were Katie's constant source of help. You and I can trust God's character even when we cannot trace his ways.2021-07-1209 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"Gratitude that this course is available. Sadness that I have to have it at all."Katie Hubbard had come to the end of chemotherapy options, but she was grateful (and sad!) to have an alternative cancer treatment option available. In early July 2015, we were planning to board a plane for Mexico to pursue another course of therapy. For some people, alternative therapy is a first choice. For Katie, it was a last resort. Her body simply couldn't tolerate any more chemo treatments. She wanted to satisfy herself that, for the sake her kids, she had done everything possible to beat the progress of cancer. The open door to pursue alternative treatment made her grateful but...2021-07-0710 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"What This Girl Wants"As Katie looked back on an unconventional life that was rapidly headed toward an untimely death, she had no regrets. This blog post, written in 2015 for other women in vocational ministry, makes two things clear: she was grateful for her years in ministry, and she remained single-minded about her goal. As she put it, "I don’t want recognition, fame. I don’t want the big selling book, I don’t want a thousand people at Nav Nite…I want laborers." She knew that God had promised to reach the world through the faithful witness and service of those who would re...2021-06-2915 minUseful Idiots with Katie Halper and Aaron MatéUseful Idiots with Katie Halper and Aaron MatéNorman Finkelstein On Cancel Culture, "White Fragility" plus Andrew Yang's Crucial MistakeNorman Finkelstein, the prolific (and widely canceled) political scientist, and author of 11 books, joins the show to give us a sneak preview of his new book on cancel culture and identity politics.

As she contemplated the prospect of alternative treatment in Mexico and meditated on Namaan's story from 2 Kings 5, she sincerely asked God again to heal her from cancer. She knew the road of right thinking was getting harder, the longer she lived with metastatic disease. She also felt like her grace to bear it was running out. So, she asked again in faith for God to heal her of cancer. If He had, this podcast would be a very different...2021-06-2105 minChangeMakers with Katie GoarChangeMakers with Katie GoarEpisode 27 | Part Two: Stephen Norman, Executive Director, King County Housing AuthorityKatie concludes her conversation with ChangeMaker, Stephen Norman, the executive director of the King County Housing Authority, which serves the Seattle suburban metropolitan region.

This episode in not a re-broadcast—but it is a re-reading—of Katie's journal entry from June 18, 2015. The podcast began (actually, it was episode 2) with this entry because it represents Katie's perspective so well. She didn't hope to become famous and she didn't want to write things for personal glory. Rather, she found herself increasingly impressed with the source of all goodness in God.2021-06-1406 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"What Does God Want To Do With This Life He Bought?"Katie Hubbard peppers the pages of her June journal with pithy questions like this, "What does God want to do with this life he bought?" She gives credit where it's due, to our friend and mentor Vic Black who said this in his book, Speak Lord. Katie also records her own proverbial observation, "The tradeoff to losing your youth is that (hopefully) you gain perspective." She certainly had lost the one and gained the other. That's what enabled her to live the answer to the question, "What does God want to do with this life he bought?"

That conviction didn't come from observing her circumstances, but from observing the ways of God in the book of Genesis. Joseph suffered many things through his life, but God exalted him in time. If I can nudge a very powerful statement from Dr. King in a slighty more biblical direction, Katie understood that "the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward righteousness". After we have suffered for a little while, things...2021-05-2407 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"You Show Me Astonishing Things From Your Word"If you read the journals of Katie Hubbard without reference to the dates, you would think she was always seeing astonishing things from God's word. As was often the case, though, there had been a lapse of more than two weeks since Katie had last journaled. When she took up her pen again, it was to remark on her sorrow for a young man who had committed suicide and to marvel at the astonishing things from God's word2021-05-1706 minThe Katie Halper ShowThe Katie Halper Show"Israel Is A Lunatic State" With Norman FinkelsteinPolitical scientist, prolific author, son of Holocaust survivors and fearless critic of Israel Norman Finkelstein joins Katie Halper for a livestreamed discussion about Israel's attacks on Palestinians, the significance of the reports on its apartheid state by Human Rights Watch and Israel's own human rights organization B'Tselem, why he thinks Israel may be at a turning point and overplayed its hand, and why it's a lunatic state.

Rachel, our third-born child, received this letter on her 8th grade retreat in 2015. Katie wrote to affirm and encourage her. There are some priceless memories from Rachel's early years, plus characteristic Katie-wisdom about life. Rachel also reads a letter that I wrote on the same occasion. Hearing these letters today brings tears to my eyes, but hearing Katie's words remind me, too, to smile at the future.2021-05-1015 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"Faith That Enables Us To Face Eternity With Excitement"Katie Hubbard knew that her cancer was progressing, but she was able to face eternity with excitement. She also knew a thing or two about parenting through the ups and downs of life. This podcast will take you through two journal entries, one email update, and a blog entry that Katie wrote for moms in ministry. You'll find loads of Solomon-like wisdom from a well-seasoned mom living with cancer, and you'll discover secrets about how to face eternity with excitement.2021-05-0321 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"God, You Are Clearly Showing Your Care For Me"Katie Hubbard knew how to spot God's providential care, not because her life was easy but because she kept looking toward him not her circumstances or herself. The title of this podcast, There Are Good Things Here, doesn't imply that life is easy but that God is good. God's providential care surrounds those who love him and have been called into his eternal, saving purposes. Katie asked for a huge miracle of healing. God didn't grant her that request. Along the way, though, she learned to keep her focus on the good things he was doing by giving thanks. She...2021-04-2604 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"You Have Taught Me Stillness Through Illness"Through her journey with cancer, Katie Hubbard had to learn an art of stillness that deepened her faith in God. She believed that God himself was a strong rock that remained stable when all else was shifting or uncertain. From that place of stability, she offered one of her deepest prayers in her final year: "not my will but yours be done". Join Katie as she reflects on this prayer of Jesus: it's not resignation but total trust. So deep had her own faith taken her through hours of stillness on the long road of cancer that she actually says, "...2021-04-1908 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"A Living Hope" | S01E16"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead." (1 Peter 1:3) On Easter Sunday 2015, Katie Hubbard knew that she was dying. She also knew she had to stand in front of Twin City Bible Church (our home church in Illinois) and describe what it meant for her to have a living hope. She told about her cancer journey, pointed people to Jesus, and expressed her own confidence in the Lord. Katie did not...2021-04-0414 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"Not One. Single. Regret" | S01E15In this episode, Katie Hubbard talks about living life as a mom in ministry with no regrets. When you say 'yes' to Jesus, you often walk an unconventional road. However, as Katie makes clear in a journal entry and email, the way is filled with blessing. You will appreciate Katie's characteristic humor in this podcast, along with her down to earth account about the challenges of motherhood. More than that, I hope you'll be inspired to keep saying 'yes' to the Lord. There may be no greater joy than to look on a life well-lived and say, "I know it's...2021-03-2916 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"I Must Cling To What Is True Rather Than To What I Feel"In this episode, Katie Hubbard simply ponders examples from Scripture where people express faith or disbelief in the face of fear and pain. “Where is your faith?” It was a question Jesus asked many people in his day, and Katie heard the divine challenge in her own.  Her subsequent journal entry ends with an epigram, the kind she was known for: “I am trading my physical symptoms for mental ones. I must cling to what is true rather than what I feel.” Finally, I read from my own journal entry from mid-March of 2015.

Hope. Courage. God is pleased. Fortitude. Stepping out. Encouragement for others.” She had no idea what kind of impact she was leaving behind when she wrote the words, “Without faith and belief, what do we have to offer others?” Her words are raw and powerful as she asks God what her own future will hold, as she tries to hold on to her faith in the present. Katie probes the question of what faith means fo...2021-03-1510 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"We Want The Miracles Of Acts But Not The Trials"Katie Hubbard was coming to grips with the extent of pain and suffering in the world as she waited for her own miracle. She also knew that the trials recorded in the Bible far outnumbered the miracles recorded. What is more, you can't minister to people in pain unless you've experienced it yourself. That was a lesson Katie learned well. She was waiting on a miracle herself in the face of her own pain and suffering. Yet her heart was growing softer toward a hurting world around her. That is a miracle in itself! Katie would often say (in her...2021-03-0807 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"I Can Have Cancer And A Good Life"Katie Hubbard had struggled through the final week of February 2015, but she surged into a new season of faith and hope in the face of cancer when March rolled around. She identifies the source of the change in her first journal entry for the month. The first was practical, or circumstantial. We rearranged our bedroom to make it beautiful and functional for her when she didn't have the energy to go anywhere but didn't want to stay in bed. The second reason was deeper. She resolved to do the hard work of believing God. In the face of cancer, faith...2021-03-0107 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things HereA Prayer Time With KatieIn this special episode, I want to give you a chance to hear Katie Hubbard in prayer … not just her voice coming through as I read her journal entries … but her actual voice. I recorded a handful of prayer times we shared together in 2014 and 2015. There were not remarkable occasions, but I wanted to capture her heart and voice for the Lord so that others could hear her. (By this point in our lives, we knew she would not survive cancer without a miracle.) The recording you’re going to hear was made in Illinois in February 2015. As you listen to it...2021-02-2414 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"I Feel Like The Train Has Gone Off The Rails"When Katie wrote the two entries featured on today's podcast, cancer treatment and pain medication had combined to leave her so low you can actually see it in her handwriting. If you only had her journal entries, you would assume that she was simply sitting in her bedroom trying to get over her fatigue and nausea. Far from it! Though she was not letting on to anyone (not even me!) how bad she felt, she was still opening up our home to international guests and visiting alumni. She was also welcoming former students who were learning their chops as new...2021-02-2208 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here“Every day is a gift and I have a choice” | S01E08The presence of cancer and the threat of paralysis cannot overwhelm a soul that trusts in God. This week’s podcast features Katie at her best in the worst of times. She opens her heart in a journal entry (below), email, and Caring Bridge post with striking vulnerability, spirituality, and wit. She was passing through a deep place of uncertainty in her soul, faced with the reality that cancer was now destroying her spine and threatening her with paralysis. You see the damage cancer is causing and think "This can't be me" In the face of it all, she says, “I ha...2021-02-1530 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"Dealing with a Stage IV Diagnosis" S01 | E07How do you keep living forward day after day with a Stage IV cancer diagnosis? If you're Katie, you just open your Bible up and read the next passage. Then, you open your journal up and write out the verse(s) that meant the most to you, underlining the words that matter most. That's what you find in her journal entry from Feb 6, 2015. It's obvious that she wanted to see the salvation of the Lord, just as Israel had. Of course, she was working out that longing while saying "Everyday is such an effort to get up and get going."...2021-02-0807 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"I Feel Hopeful" S01 | E06Katie was living with Stage IV cancer and didn't often wake up feeling happy or hopeful. Her journal entry from January 31 was uncharacteristically upbeat for this season of life. She sets a good example for all of us going through hard times. It's OK to feel happy and even better to express it to God! In this entry, Katie's lighter side really comes through as she recounts a visit we made to Elkhart, IN, "kind of a dumpy town". (Sorry to all of you who love Elkhart.) As we were shopping for supplies for our motorhome, Katie encountered a particularly...2021-02-0108 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"I do not interest me" | S01E02Katie managed the pressure she felt to write by writing ... in her journal. Anytime you write something for others to read, there’s a bit of felt pressure that sneaks in with it. Katie’s journals, of course, were her private prayers and meditations. She also kept up a blog for many years on Caring Bridge. Many of you probably kept up with her life story there. In fact, I encourage you to visit her Caring Bridge page to read her writings for yourself. What you’ll discover is that Katie was an amazing writer with depth of soul and keen w...2021-01-2007 minThere Are Good Things HereThere Are Good Things Here"I Trust You Jesus" | S01E01This was one of Katie's final journal entries, written about two weeks before she passed away. When Katie wrote the journal entry featured in today's podcast, she was dying from cancer but growing in faith. You can actually see the toll cancer was taking by observing her unsteady handwriting. With about two weeks to live, however, she was steadying her heart by expressing her trust in her Savior and Lord, Jesus. Katie used to say—and believe with all her heart—that There Are Good Things Here. She often said that would be the title of her book, if she ever...2021-01-2007 min2 Dumb Blondes2 Dumb BlondesEpisode 8 - Adventure Is Out There!Well Merry Chrysler and Happy New Year!
