Beyond Suffering: Hope for Parents with Special Needs Kids with Guest Steve Bundy
When Steve Bundy discovered that his newborn son, Caleb, had multiple disabilities, he was devastated and struggled with a crisis of faith. He and his wife, Melissa, traded toy trucks for full-time caregiving. On today’s edition of Family Talk, the senior vice president at Joni and Friends Ministries confesses that he was angry, lost, and disillusioned after his son’s diagnosis. When Steve asked God why He wouldn’t fix Caleb, he felt the Lord say, “Aren't you glad I didn’t require you to be fixed before I accepted you?” Through this process, Steve has learned that, “suffering without purpose is meaningless. But suffering with purpose through the sovereignty of God has all the meaning in the world.”
