OM DENNE EPISODE
The Tangible and The Intangible
I recorded this one on a genuinely significant day, what would have been Hannah's thirty ninth birthday and our ninth wedding anniversary. Ray and I went deep into faith, suffering, and the idea that what cannot be measured can still be entirely real.
We talked properly, for the first time, about Romans 5:3 to 5, and what it actually means to rejoice in suffering rather than simply staying attached to it. I also opened up about my own uncertainty over what comes next professionally, alongside Ray's own uncertainty about his job at the time.
In this episode:
- A full explanation of Romans 5:3 to 5, and the path from suffering to hope
- The difference between what is tangibly absent and what is intangibly still present
- My own uncertainty about my career, and Ray's parallel uncertainty about his job
- Roger Bannister's four minute mile, and how belief spreads once someone proves something possible
- Whether it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all
Pull quote: "Rejoicing in your suffering gives you patience, perseverance which then gives you character. And then in character there is hope."
Come and join me and Ray for Episode 10, recorded during a family holiday, where we get properly practical about what stopping actually looks like.
