Lighthouse Voices: Engaging Suffering as a Cultural Witness

Tuesday, October 8th at 7pm PT: Livestream and In-Person

In our cultural moment, courage is rare. Good character, even rarer. Even within Christian circles, moral integrity is often dismissed as outdated, and suffering is something to be avoided at all costs. Yet deep within – more so, the Christian heart – craves authenticity; we long for leaders whose ironclad character cannot be dismantled. We hunger for stories with substance, that rise above the trivial or temporary.

Join us on October 8 for an inspiring and thought-provoking event featuring Joni Eareckson Tada, as she tackles the topic of "Engaging Suffering as a Cultural Witness." Joni, a renowned author, speaker, and advocate, will challenge us to confront suffering head-on, allowing it to shape our character rather than diminish it. With her deep insights and personal experiences, she will explore how God uses suffering to mold influential leaders whose impact is felt because of, not despite, their trials.

This event promises to be a compelling exploration of how suffering can be a powerful tool in developing character and authenticity in a world that desperately needs both. Don’t miss this chance to be challenged, inspired, and equipped to embrace suffering as a powerful testimony of a life well-lived. RSVP for FREE now for the livestream or in-person event using the secure form below. Don’t wait, as spaces are limited!
