Cancer Sucks, Jesus Saves is a six-part podcast series that tackles the raw reality of cancer while shining a light on unshakable hope in Christ. In today's moving episode of Cancer Sucks, but Jesus Saves, we sit down with a wife who lost her beloved husband to cancer 17 years ago. She reflects on the painful road of grief—the tears, the questions, and the ache of raising children without their father. But she also shares how, over time, God met her in the valley, restored her heart, and led her into a life overflowing with joy.
Today, her adult children are thriving, her faith is deeper than ever, and her story is a testimony that loss doesn’t have to have the last word. Through Christ, sorrow can give way to hope, and brokenness can be made beautiful.
Because while cancer may take a life, Jesus gives life everlasting.
This episode honors the unseen heroes: the survivors who've lost a loved one to cancer and who still strives to make a difference every day.
Stay tuned for the final episode on next Thursday August 28th with therapist/counselor, Weena Wise who helps navigate the emotional and spiritual toll.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
