This week, Ress and Gabi unpack what it feels like to be “love bombed by life”—those whirlwind moments when everything happens all at once: big wins, major curveballs, and life-altering changes that don't exactly wait their turn. From new jobs and personal breakthroughs to emotional overload and decision fatigue, they explore how even the best things can feel like too much when they hit all at once.Gabi opens up about her recent season of growth and transition, highlighting the unsung heroes—support systems, boundaries, and a solid cup of coffee. The duo dives into the idea of love bombing in relationships and cleverly flips it on its head to talk about how life itself can sometimes overwhelm us with "too much of everything."They discuss the sneaky signs of burnout, the pressure to say yes to every opportunity, and why it's okay to hit pause—even when life's throwing glitter. With honest reflections and practical tips (think commitment audits, grounding rituals, and protecting your peace), Ress and Gabi remind us that while intense chapters are temporary, our well-being is not negotiable.

Sometimes, the bad thing happens—again. The kind of news that flattens your plans, your energy, your sense of who you are. And you think, surely that’s enough now. Haven’t we hit the quota for suffering? But there’s no quota, just the long middle where life doesn’t follow a script and you’re left figuring out how to be a person again. Suleika Jaouad knows this terrain well. She’s a writer, artist, and advocate, beloved for her memoir Between Two Kingdoms and her new offering The Book of Alchemy—a creative companion for those learning to live when life doesn’t go according to plan. Diagnosed with leukemia in her twenties and now navigating her third relapse, Suleika brings a voice shaped by experience, beauty, grief, and humor. Together again on the Everything Happens podcast, Suleika and Kate talk about: how illness reshapes the rhythms of a life the grief and freedom of falling apart—and not rushing to fix it the idea of “creative injuries” and why so many of us stopped making how small rituals can anchor us in seasons of uncertainty why creating something, anything, can be a way to stay human in the in-between If you liked this episode, you might also like: Artist Lanecia Rouse Tinsley on “When Hope Seems Lost” Stacey Heale, “The Aftermath of the Aftermath” Suleika’s first and second Everything Happens episodes Watch clips from this conversation, read the full transcript, and access discussion questions by clicking here or visiting katebowler.com/podcasts.

This week we're dropping into your feed to share another podcast we love called Everything Happens.Duke Professor Kate Bowler is an expert in the stories we tell about success and failure, suffering and happiness. She had Stage IV cancer. Then she didn’t. And since then, all she wants to do is talk to funny and wise people about living with the knowledge that everything happens. In this conversation, she sits down with Amanda Doyle to talk about what happens when helping becomes a way to stay in control, when strength hides tenderness, and when receiving love might be the bravest thing we do. She shares her experience of parenting a neurodivergent child, walking through a breast cancer diagnosis, and learning to see herself as worthy of the care she so freely gives to others. This episode is about the ache of being the strong one—and the grace of letting that go, just a little.

Send us a textSome sayings sound spiritual but aren't scriptural. We repeat them for comfort, clarity, or conviction—phrases like “Everything happens for a reason” or “God helps those who help themselves.” But what if these phrases misrepresent the heart of Jesus?This series exposes five popular Christian clichés that Jesus never said. Instead of relying on half-truths, we'll look at what Scripture really says, and what Jesus did say, so we can build a faith that's true, deep, and rooted in grace. Each week, we'll replace confusion with clarity and easy answers with real hope.Everything Happens for a ReasonWe often say “everything happens for a reason” to bring comfort or because we just don't know what to say, but did Jesus ever say that? This week, we'll explore what Scripture really says about God's sovereignty, human suffering, and the hope we find in Jesus, not in easy answers. Discover how God's presence matters more than pat explanations.

Greg and Nathan take a hard look at one of the most common—and potentially harmful—Christian clichés: “Everything happens for a reason.” While often meant to comfort, they unpack how this phrase can unintentionally shut down grief, oversimplify suffering, and imply that God intends every painful event. They explore how confusing God's sovereignty with approval leads to damaging theology, and clarify that Romans 8:28 doesn't claim all things are good, but that God works in all things for good. Greg and Nathan stress that during seasons of suffering, what people need isn't quick answers but compassionate presence and the assurance that God is near and redeeming—even in the hardest moments. The gospel doesn't promise to explain every pain, but it offers deep assurance: God enters into our suffering and promises redemption, not just reasons.

Have you ever heard someone say, “Everything happens for a reason”? It sounds comforting — but is it biblical? In this message, we explore what Romans 8:26–30 actually teaches about suffering, trust, and God's ultimate good purposes. While the Bible never says “everything happens for a reason,” it does promise that God can redeem even the most painful moments for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.We'll look at the dangers of misusing spiritual clichés, how Jesus approaches suffering in John 9, and why our obedience to God shouldn't depend on having all the answers. Through personal stories, Scripture, and practical next steps, you'll be challenged to move beyond easy explanations and into a deeper, more trusting relationship with God — even in the midst of life's hardest questions.

How can something bad be good?...

Bestselling author and recovering stage 4 cancer patient Kate Bowler (Duke Divinity professor and host of Everything Happens podcast) asks as many questions as she answers. Where did we get our ideas about what's fair, what can be manifested, what we're owed? When it comes to cultural messages of self help, what's true and what's a bunch of profitable nonsense? After Kelly sat down with Kate on the set of her PBS show Tell Me More, she met up with bestselling author Arthur C. Brooks, a happiness researcher who writes for The Atlantic and teaches at Harvard.
