The unthinkable happens. The unbearable lands on our doorstep. We get the news or the call no one ever wants to receive. Tragedy hits with a blow that knocks, not only the breath out of us, but the life out of us too. Our hearts break so much they physically hurt. It is tempting in these storms to turn our backs on God, to blame Him, and to be angry. How can a loving God allow such terrible things to happen to good people?
Peace. We need peace! Stats show that more people commit suicide because they lack peace, than due to their lacking love or happiness. But where and how can we find it?
In this episode, Sharon discusses our only source of true and lasting peace. His name is Jesus. He is our Anchor. And through it all the Anchor holds. He holds us through the storms of life. He is steadfast and true, and He will never leave us nor forsake us.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
