Sharing Jesus When Your Health Is Failing - a podcast by Evangelism In Australia

from 2022-11-22T11:22:24

:: ::

Tina Waldrom speaks with Tracy Lauersen about Sharing Jesus When Your Health is Failing. Tracy is the minister at Warragul Anglican Church in Victoria. She had her own brush with cancer. “Don’t waste your cancer”, was the approach that Tracy took after reading some literature by John Piper. Tracy talks about the change of mindset she embraced and how this helped her reach people for Christ. Today she is well and cancer free. Christian believers are called to share their faith in all situations but that can be difficult. Tracy shares the very real challenges of her health journey and how she approached this as a believer. Sharing Jesus When Your Health is Failing is something she unexpectantly mastered.


Like most people, Tracy did not expect to receive the news that she had cancer. She did not expect that part of her ministerial life, would take her on a journey of ill health. She had to reconcile her physical challenge with her Christian faith. By nature, Tracy is a private person. Having to be honest and open about her cancer did not come easy. She received great encouragement when she realised that God was not surprised by her predicament and that He could use it for the good.


In this episode, Tracy talks honestly about her very private journey. She shares the wonderful stories of other people’s lives being changed through her circumstance. Embracing the mindset, that God had for her at the time was the key. It was the key for her to move through her situation and the key for others to hear about Christ. The stories are inspirational. They show a God who is at work through all parts of the Christian life. They show a God who is on mission even through tough circumstances. They reveal the power of the Holy Spirit to bring healing to others even when our own healing is needed.  For anyone whose health is failing, this is an episode that can help and inspire you forward.
