 Season 2: Shaken with Steve Sunshine

Even followers of Jesus experience things in life that can make a firm foundation feel kind of well shaky. I will be sharing stories of people finding hope, joy and even humor under difficult life circumstances. The common denominator in these stories is God.

Season 1: Hope When Life Hurts with Erica Parkerson

Welcome to Hope When Life Hurts, a special 5-episode podcast series designed to shine a light on what God is doing during the darkest moments of our lives. God wants to meet you in the middle of your mess. There is Hope for when you lose a loved one and your heart splits in two. Hope for when a transition in life leaves you feeling empty. Hope for when the life you expected to live…simply unravels. The struggle is real, but so is the hope!

“You, LORD, keep my lamp burning,” David wrote in the psalms. “My God turns my darkness into light.”

  • Psalm 23 in the Valley with Steve Sunshine

    Psalm 23 in the Valley with Steve Sunshine
    Dec 3 2025
    Sometimes life takes a turn we never expected, and it can feel overwhelming. I never imagined Parkinson’s would become part of my story, but here I am—learning to walk this road with faith instead of fear. The diagnosis shook me, but Psalm 23 has been my anchor, reminding me that God is with me in every valley. Even when my strength fails, His grace carries me, and I’ve found hope not just for myself, but to share with others who are struggling too.

    Lara Silverman has a rare neurological disorder. She lives in a state of constant and severe vertigo. It has cost her her career, and left her mostly homebound. Tragically, the disorder is not the only source of grief in her life. She also lost her husband of one year to cancer. Yet, it would be hard not to describe Lara as a joyful person. She shares about her journey in her new books Singing Through Fire: Finding Surprising Joy in Life’s Darkest Trials.
