Show notes
During one of the darkest seasons of her life, Wendy Speake walked 150 miles in a single month. She felt so emotionally paralyzed that taking physical steps became a way to begin moving forward again.
In this deeply personal conversation, Ginny Yurich welcomes Wendy back to discuss her new book, The Sacrifice of Praise and Thanksgiving, and the surprising ways gratitude can reshape our lives even when circumstances remain painfully difficult.
Wendy shares why parents often lose control precisely when they're fighting hardest to maintain it, how negative thought patterns can quietly deepen over time, and why noticing the smallest gifts in everyday life can help interrupt despair. She also explores the difference between denying difficult emotions and bringing them honestly before God.
From long walks and ordinary miracles to the discipline of praising God when life doesn't feel good, this conversation offers a thoughtful perspective on finding hope without pretending everything is fine.
