About this listen

Caregiving often hides what I call smoldering rage—resentment that simmers quietly until a fresh crisis ignites it like a wildfire. In this week’s Hope for the Caregiver radio show, I open with a monologue about those hidden embers, drawing from Montana’s fire season to show how caregivers can confront resentment and apply God’s grace before it consumes us.

The program closes with a hymn every caregiver needs: “Be Still, My Soul.” Gracie’s a cappella performance of this timeless hymn reminds us that God’s faithfulness steadies us when caregiving feels unbearable and that the daily grind of service is, in fact, holy work.

This episode also features excerpts from my conversation with author and fellow caregiver Jess Ronne, whose story of loss, resilience, and faith offers a powerful reminder that we’re not alone in this journey.
