Friends, this is a special episode of Faith Through Cancer. Today I sit down with Maureen, my mother-in-law Bev’s best friend of over 40 years, to honor Bev’s life, legacy, and faith—two years after her passing. Together, we reflect on Bev’s incredible personality, her strength through a terminal cancer diagnosis, and the spiritual transformation she experienced along the way.
Bev’s story is one of resilience, joy, deep faith, and intentional gratitude. Through journals, Scripture, music, worship, and community, Bev chose to walk through cancer with purpose—not fear. You’ll hear how her relationship with Jesus deepened in her final years, how she embraced joy despite pain, and how her light continues to shine through her story and legacy.
Bible Verses Shared in the Episode: 📖 Isaiah 26:3 – “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” 📖 Isaiah 43:16 – “Thus says the Lord who makes a way in the sea and a path in the mighty waters.” 📖 2 Corinthians 4:16–18 – “Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day.” 📖 Hebrews 4:12 – “For the word of God is alive and active…” 📖 Psalm 23 – “He restores my soul.” 📖 Philippians 4 – “Think about whatever is good, lovely, and true.”
A Word for Caregivers and Friends: Sometimes the greatest gift you can give is simply being there. Respect the boundaries of your loved one, follow their lead, and keep showing up with love, Scripture, and presence.
