Navigating Suffering: Finding Hope in the Darkness with Dr. Kathryn Butler
Navigating suffering, faith, and medical care can be challenging, especially when faced with life-altering illnesses or depression. In a world where suffering takes many forms, some struggles are outwardly visible, while others remain hidden. Depression is one such quiet suffering that can leave individuals feeling isolated and hopeless. In a recent conversation, Dr. Kathryn Butler, a trauma surgeon turned homeschool mom and author, shared her personal experience with depression and offered wisdom on how we can think about it biblically, encourage one another, and find hope in the darkness. Dr. Butler shares insights on the importance of caring for the whole person (body and soul), the role of faith in suffering, and how stories can bring clarity and hope in the midst of hard times. Whether you’re grappling with personal struggles or supporting a loved one, this discussion offers encouragement, practical guidance, and a gospel-centered perspective on suffering and healing.
