With the end of 2022, Peter offers us a way to measure our health as we care for those we love.

Our Year-end Assessment

1. Respect the trauma
2. Guilt and what it will do to you
3. Let the resentment go
4. Challenge ourselves to grow

Peter talks with Colleen Swindoll Thompson about the losses in life, especially handling life when it all goes sideways.

Her honesty and transparency will help anyone dealing with life when it is out of control, in her book, Reframing Life: Focusing on God When Life Gets Sideways and Learn more about her ministry,

Holidays and caregiving are not always compatible but if we remember we are stewards and not obligated merry makers it can help.

Embrace new traditions, Getting above the chaos with solitude and what that looks like are two things Peter identifies for us  – it is not isolation.

And finally a cautionary tale - “How much trauma is acceptable?”

The theme is Thankfulness as we continue the holiday just a bit longer through the week end.

Happy Thanksgiving!

 This week Peter says, “Have some fun; live your life!” Easier said than done sometimes but he has some hints for incorporating fun into your stressful situation.

Peter addresses our universal reaction to pain; all kinds of pain and how the believer in Christ can rest in Him and draw on Christ's unfailing, ineffable resources of grace, mercy and love.

Peter shares from his own experience how hard it can  be to present ourselves as a sacrifice for those we care for.

Obedience that please God is always a believing obedience meaning, we know what God has said, we believed what He said and we act in obedience because of His love.

You may say, "what does this have to do with caregiving?" Well, keep listening.
