When Life Takes an Unwanted Turn - Ruth Chou Simons
What do you do when life suddenly takes an unwanted turn?
In Season 12, Episode 2 of the Candace Cameron Bure Podcast, Candace and co-host Ruth Chou Simons talk about crisis, grief, and depending on God when life feels out of control. Ruth shares the story of her son Judah’s mountain biking accident and how God met her in the ICU. Candace opens up about her 10-year break from acting, the fear she’d never work again, and how God used that season to deepen her understanding of the gospel. They also discuss motherhood, grief, identity, and freedom from anxiety through Christ.
Listener questions include how to keep faith during a cancer diagnosis and how to find motivation to live when life is falling apart.
