このコンテンツについて

In grief, we all have hidden in the shadows. We have darted from conversations. We shop alone. We eat alone. We go to church alone. We unwillingly have joined a club that we never intended to be apart of. We have an unspoken language but we understand each other. If you have experienced the grief of trauma, this podcast is for you. If you've experienced the grief of divorce, this podcast is for you. If you've experienced the death of a loved one, parent, a spouse, a child, this podcast is for you. If you wanna know how to help people right in the middle of their grief, this podcast is for you. Embark on a deeply personal journey of resilience, hope, and healing with Curtis Christopher and co-host Chris Farrell on the "Run to the Hard" podcast. In the wake of sudden tragedy and profound grief, Curtis vulnerably shares his experiences of navigating life's toughest moments after losing his beloved wife Michal to a sudden and aggressive battle to cancer. Michal lived by the mantra, "Run to the hard, run to the hurt because it's in the greatest hard that God's gonna do the greatest work" Joining a community is as easy as hitting play.2024 キリスト教 スピリチュアリティ 心理学 心理学・心の健康 聖職・福音主義 衛生・健康的な生活

  • Ep 41: We Both Lost Our Spouses, Then God Wrote A New Story
    2025/12/09

    This might be the most complete version of our grief story we've ever told.

    What an honor to share it with the people at Fostoria Church of the Nazarene.

    Curtis starts right from the beginning...

    Him at 6 years old, packed into his mom's VW, driving away to start life anew.

    Through a messy divorce, remarriage and Michael dying suddenly.

    Into Crystal's story of abandonment, remarriage, then widowhood.

    Through coming together in miraculous ways, only to have Michael's kids' dad die right before Curtis and Crystal were supposed to get married.

    Guys God is in this.

    He's in the hard. He's in the hurt.

    Let Him do a miraculous work in your life by trusting Him and running into those hard places.
