In this episode, Eric and Angela talk candidly about what it looks like to navigate joy in the middle of struggle—when life feels heavy, energy is low, and faith isn’t exactly firing on all cylinders. Using James 1:2–4 as a backdrop, they reflect on seasons of parenting exhaustion, marriage under stress, and the slow work of perseverance that shapes us over time.
This isn’t about pretending things are easy or rushing toward quick fixes. It’s about learning how joy can exist alongside hardship, how perseverance is formed in everyday moments, and how choosing to keep showing up—together—matters more than having it all figured out.
If you’ve ever felt like your faith was running on cold coffee and unfinished prayers, you’re not alone.
