Have you ever felt like life was just happening to you? Like your struggles - whether with health, faith, or purpose - were isolating you from others and even from your own potential? You're not alone.
In this compelling exploration of faith, health, and inner growth, Dr. Shawna M. Dixon shares her journey of discovering unexpected purpose while battling lupus. Through her unique perspective as both a minister and chronic illness warrior, she reveals powerful parallels between physical autoimmune disease and the internal conflicts that can weaken both individual faith and church communities.
Drawing from her personal experiences and spiritual insights, Dr. Dixon shows how:
Physical symptoms can illuminate spiritual truths Internal conflicts in the church mirror autoimmune responses in the body Chronic illness can become a catalyst for deeper spiritual understanding Personal struggles can lead to powerful purpose The journey from merely existing to truly living is possible, even amid ongoing challenges
