What do you do when the pain doesn't go away? In this episode of inContext, Michael Easley sits down with author Glenna Marshall to discuss living faithfully through chronic illness, unanswered prayers, and years of physical suffering. Rather than asking, "Why me?" Glenna explains why Scripture invites us to ask, "How do I trust God today?" Together they explore biblical lament, the role of gratitude, present-tense grace, and the hope believers have because of Christ. Whether you're battling chronic pain, caring for someone who is, or simply walking through a difficult season, this conversation offers biblical encouragement without offering shallow answers.

Why does God allow us to suffer? Glenna Marshall spent six years chasing a diagnosis and sixteen years living with a painful autoimmune disease before writing Praying in Pain. In this conversation, she explores this question and walks us through what God has taught her through it all. Glenna talks through the four-part pattern of the biblical lament psalms — cry out, remember, resolve — and how they became her lifeline during sleepless nights of suffering. Glenna opens up about the pride that kept her silent from her church, the tension chronic illness can create in a marriage, and what she's learned about complaining honestly to God instead of everyone else. Listen in for a hard-won perspective on healing, hope, and raising children who've watched a parent suffer well. 02:04 – Glenna describes the onset of her mystery illness at age 29 09:30 – The four-part pattern of lament psalms: cry out, remember, resolve 13:37 – "You don't have to stop complaining — you just have to complain differently" 16:12 – The story of snapping at a friend who complained about a sore back 20:16 – Hiding her flare-up from her church during a leaf-raking outreach 22:36 – The three ways Glenna believes God heals 27:03 – Navigating marriage when one spouse is in chronic pain and the other isn't 31:59 – Glenna's closing word to anyone suffering in isolation Check out Glenna Marshall's blog: https://www.glennamarshall.com/ More Resources from Arlene Pellicane: SUBSCRIBE to Arlene's newsletter "What I'm Learning This Week" and get the checklist, 7 Warning Signs of Screen Overuse.

Glenna Marshall is a Pastor's wife and mother of two sons. She's the author of: The Promise of His Presence, Everyday Faithfulness, and other books. She appeared on Crosstalk to discuss her newest release: "Praying in Pain: How to Know You're Heard When You Haven't Been Healed." Have you ever gone to bed at night dreading the next multiple hours where sleep eludes you due to pain? Perhaps this isn't a single night but night after night. You try the usual things, shifting your position in bed multiple times, trying different pillow positions, perhaps using some sort of over-the-counter pain-reliever, perhaps applying heat or cold, or moving from your bed to the couch to the recliner and then back to your bed again with no lasting relief. Glenna writes, "I've spent many nights treading water in an ocean of pain. And yet, I can think of no other place or time when God has most faithfully met me in the dark. In the night. In the crucible of my deepest and hardest physical suffering. I have learned that though it feels impossibly hard to pray in the grip of crushing pain, prayer is how we survive it. It's how we endure." What about when your pain is so great you cannot pray? Is it normal to feel like God is ignoring us when we're in pain? What about those who say prayer for pain is merely complaining to God? What help can the Psalms bring to such situations? What part does gratitude play when suffering? These are just a number of questions Glenna answers as she explains, from experience, how to handle pain from a biblical perspective.

Ever find yourself asking how you can bridge the gap between just reading and truly living God's Word? With special guest Glenna Marshall, we embark on a spiritual journey that proves Scripture memorization is the key. Glenna shares her transformation through Bible memorization, highlighting the profound impact it can have on our daily battles with sin and our triumphs over personal struggles. In this engaging exchange, we lay open the challenges of Bible memorization and, more importantly, offer practical solutions to help you overcome them. We emphasize the importance of understanding God's voice to discern His genuine Word and stand firm against competing, counterfeit beliefs. Wrapping up with tips for memorizing Scripture passages, we delve into methods like repetition, using audio Bibles, writing out passages using only the first letter of each word, and creating mnemonic devices. Importantly, we stress that memorization is not merely about recitation but also about transforming our minds and hearts to align with God's Word. We offer simple yet efficient ways to incorporate Scripture memorization into your family life. Tune in and embark on this journey of Scripture memorization and let God's voice guide your life.Book: Memorizing ScriptureWebsite: www.glennamarshall.comBible: ESV Study BibleJournaling Supplies: Spiral NotebookApp/Website: Blue Letter BibleIn-Depth Bible Study Academy Course 6 How to Understand Context is Course 6.

We may think that we can't memorize Scripture because we have terrible memories or that we don't have time. But in today's episode, Glenna Marshall shows us what a few minutes a day can do to transform your walk with the Lord and the way you engage with His Word. Glenna has seen the benefits of Scripture memory firsthand as she has incorporated it into pockets of time throughout her day. She recently wrote a book all about it titled, Memorizing Scripture: The Basics, Blessings, and Benefits of Meditating on God's Word.

Each day is filled with decisions and we're anxious to make the right ones. We live in a world where information is right at our fingertips—but as moms, we need something deeper and never-changing. Even when knowledge is helpful, no amount of Internet searching will ultimately give us God's direction for our family. For that, we need godly wisdom—so where do we find it? In this episode, Emily chats with author and mom, Glenna Marshall, on how we can seek wisdom from the Lord through Scripture, prayer, and wise counsel. While we don't get a personalized playbook for the life before us, God in his gracious provision gives us what we need through his Word. When we seek wisdom from the One who knows all and sees all, he provides more than we could ever dream to ask. This episode is brought to you by our generous donors.
