Podcasts about from depths we rise

Friends, you do not want to miss this conversation with Sarah, as she shares her journey through more heartache and loss before the age of 40, than many of us will face in a lifetime. Sarah's story includes infertility, the diagnosis and loss of her husband to cancer, a miraculous pregnancy and subsequent medical crisis of her newborn daughter and now a new marriage to none other than her high school sweetheart! Through all the trials Sarah held on to hope and as she looks back, she is able to see God's redemptive hand in her life. Sarah's shares her story candidly in her memoir, From Depths We Rise (which I highly recommend!) Her story was featured in People magazine and she has published articles in Huffington Post. You can follow her blog over on: www.journeyofsarah.com and follow her on FaceBook, Instagram and Twitter @journeyofsarah.

My guest for Happy Hour #113 is Sarah Rodriguez. Sarah is an author, speaker, blogger at www.journeyofsarah.com and also the Huffington Post. She is the creator of the Choose Joy Project, a random-acts of kindness initiative to honor the life of her late husband Joel. Her life's greatest role is that of Mommy to Milo and Ellis. Sarah is a one time NYC transplant who now makes her home in Oklahoma, where the best sunsets on earth are found.  On today's show, Sarah shares her personal story of struggling with infertility, only to be followed by her husband's cancer diagnosis. She shares the painstaking three year journey of his diagnosis, treatment, cancer return and finally his passing. The details of Sarah's story are heartbreaking, but I think it's her perspective and response that will leave you feeling speechless and inspired. She describes how her suffering afforded her a relationship with God that she wouldn't have had otherwise, quoting Job 42.5 "I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you." You're going to need your tissues for this one. And to learn a lot more about Sarah's story, you can grab her book From Depths We Rise here. {You can listen to the showHERE.
