About this episode

In this episode, Chad and Sadie Roberts discuss their journey of faith and hope after Chad lost his sight, addressing the challenges of trusting God during difficult times.

What do you do when you believe God can heal… but He doesn't? This is the 2nd part of a powerful and deeply honest conversation with Pastor Chad and Sadie Roberts as they continue talking about faith in the middle of life's hardest storms after Chad lost his sight—a life-altering moment that challenged everything he believed about healing, and suffering. In Part 1, Chad and Sadie share their journey through loss, questions, and unwavering faith, offering hope to anyone who has ever asked: Why didn't God change this? How do I keep trusting Him when life feels unfair? If you are walking through a difficult season, this episode reminds you that God is still present, still working, and often does His deepest work in the middle of the storm. Chad Roberts is the founder and lead pastor of Preaching Christ Church in Kingsport, Tennessee, and author of Blind Faith: Seeing God Through Darkness. Sadie Roberts serves through Strong ACC (From Cradle to Career), and together they host the marriage podcast The Marriage Conversation.
