Hope for the Caregiver

A Conversation With THE SHACK Author, Paul Young

Paul Young, author of the best-selling book, THE SHACK ( now a feature film), calls the show to share insights regarding God's love for those who suffer ...and those who care for them.

Clinging To A Rope In the Darkness

When visiting friends in the hospital, the room adjacent to them recalled a defining caregiving moment for me from nearly thirty years ago.

Caller Angry At Treatment of Her Elderly Mother and At Her Wits' End.

Do you feel that you are at the mercy of the system?  It's easy for us as caregivers to easily feel taken advantage of, given the "run-around," and be marginalized by the very people we look to for help ... in the health care system. 

Listen to the caller express her frustration as we tackle the topic of anger. 

Don't try to be a caregiver alone!  There's so much more at our resource center. 

Impotent Fury

Many caregivers secretly (and not so secretly) struggle with anger and "raging with impotent fury" at a disease or an impairment that is elusive and beyond our control.  How can you live in in peace with a relentless enemy that you can't fight?

The Peter Rosenberger Show is sponsored by Standing With Hope, Inc.  a 501 (c) 3 organization.  

In 2012, Standing With Hope launched an outreach to caregivers of disabled, elderly, or chronically-ill loved ones.  This program is also deeply personal to Gracie and Peter Rosenberger.  Peter, who has served as the caregiver for Gracie for 30 years, draws upon his lifetime of experience to offer a lifeline to those struggling to care for vulnerable loved one.

Your tax deductible gift can help support this work today and help reach caregivers with practical help and point them to Christ.

Angry at God ( and others)?

From a recent dialogue on the show about anger at God.  "I went from praying for 'Rescuing Grace" ...to asking for for 'Sustaining Grace.'"

Some of that anger was also directed at church folks who "dangle the carrot of 'victory' and 'breakthrough' to those struggling with irreversible challenges.
