5 Ways to Care for a Friend in a Hard Season | With Whitney Capps

This episode was recorded in August of 2026. After this conversation was recorded, Whitney received the news from her doctor that her treatment was no longer working, and she and her family made the decision to discontinue her cancer treatment. Whitney went home to be with the Lord on October 2, 2026, less than two months after this conversation. We are so grateful to be the carriers of her story of grace to the world. 

In this moving conversation, Whitney Capps shares the reality of living with cancer and the profound ways the body of Christ has surrounded her with care, meals, rides, prayers, and practical love. She reflects on the hard work of receiving help, releasing control, and finding grace in the messy middle, while offering wisdom for how to truly show up for people in suffering. The episode points listeners back to the “ministry of presence” and the quiet, sustaining melody of God’s grace in every season.
