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

    They're grieving their spouses deaths...

    Curtis' step-children's dad passes away...

    Their wedding was canceled...

    Old grief is being brought to the surface as they navigate death, grief, the legal system...

    Their ways of managing the overwhelm have them feeling disconnected...

    There's no way you could make up something like this. It's just too much.

    And yet...

    By God's grace, they are here and they keep going.

  • When Grief Breaks a Relationship… and God Holds It Together
    2025/07/15

    Welcome to part 2 of this unbelievable saga.

    The life of Curtis Christopher, Michal's kids, and Crystal and her kids continues to plunge further into the chaos of unexpected death, compounding grief, triggers, postponed marriage, court dates, and just life with so many moving parts.

    Today they dive into the difficulty of deciding to postpone a wedding, just days after their court date, blending such a unique family, sacrificial love, obedience to the Lord, and inter-family dynamics.

    This is a story that would be hard to make up, because it sounds so unbelievable.

    But by God's grace, Curtis and Crystal continue along the path to build a safe, stable, loving home for these kids while they continue to wait on God's timing and trust Jesus to bring everything to fruition, in His time.

  • Five Kids Lose Their Dad Overnight & The Aftermath of Grief
    2025/07/01

    If you've heard our story and think things have been crazy lately, you haven't heard anything yet.

    In this episode we walk you through the absolute whirlwind of grief and tragedy we've been walking through the last couple of months, to make things all the more complicated after the last couple of years of grief.

    From sudden death, to planning a funeral, to postponing our wedding, to lawyers and court dates, to deathversaries making it all the worse.

    Not much of this story makes sense from our limited human perspective, but God is faithful and we hope sharing this both encourages and strengthens your own walk.
