Imagine you must hand over your little baby to strangers for uncomfortable and scary tests. And imagine you know the outcome may not be what you are hoping. Katie Schnack’s son, Shepherd, was born with multiple medical issues along with a rare disease. In this conversation with Sharon Betters, Katie shares when she realized that saying everything is not fine was not a sign of weak faith but could actually be a sure sign of dependence on the Lord. With humor and transparency, Katie shares her story of learning what it means to trust the Lord when life isn’t fine and how her relationship with Him grew deeper because of her willingness to admit her struggle to surrender to His purposes, especially for her son.

This conversation is for everyone, but especially for those families called to raise special children who require lots of extra care as they take their parents into unknown territory where fear could destroy them. Katie brings a fresh perspective on how such a journey can be filled with unexpected eternal blessings.
