Bluestem Project

By: Brandon & Amy Smith
  • Summary

  • Life is hard. Life with chronic, critical, and complex health concerns is even harder. We all know someone who is struggling with health issues or disability; it might even be you. In the pain and suffering, we wonder if it is even possible to move from surviving to thriving. We often wrestle with life's greatest questions in light of deep personal pain, deep suffering, and unknowns. We struggle to hope, struggle to persevere, struggle to trust that God knows what He's doing. But in the struggle, there is real hope and it's possible to be rooted and ready to weather the storm. Let's journey together and dig into this real hope, real joy from a real God. Welcome to the Bluestem Project!

  • Meaning and Purpose in our Suffering - Part I
    Sep 2 2020

    "Why is this happening?" "Why me?" "Why now?"

    As people we are made with an intrinsic awareness that there's something bigger going on, something beyond ourselves and it often reveals itself when we are thrust into medical hardships. As we face challenges we long to use our pain in order to impact beyond ourselves.

    Join us as we discuss meaning and purpose in our suffering - the things we can control.

  • Meaning and Purpose in our Suffering - Part II
    Sep 2 2020

    God is at work in all things. We live under an illusion of control, when really we control so little. God's glory and goodness is what all things point to, whether we choose to acknowledge that truth or not. In all things, our circumstances are opportunities to demonstrate His worthiness to the world.

    We are wired for meaning and purpose, so what is the meaning and purpose behind medical hardship and disability? How can this be beautiful? How can this bring Him glory? How can this be for my good?
