Episode 17: What to Say to Your Friend Who is Facing Cancer
Do you have a friend facing cancer? Are you struggling at finding the right things to say or how you can ACTUALLY help them? It can be so hard to enter into someone else’s suffering, I know because I’ve been there!
When Pat was diagnosed with cancer in 2018, what others said— or didn’t say — really mattered! That’s why this week on Rootlike Faith we are talking about how you can TRULY support your friends, family, or loved ones as they go through the unimaginable.
Today’s Key Idea:
We need to be grateful for those who move toward our suffering and gracious toward those who move away from it.
