The Healthy Christian Leader
Leading with Hope When the Diagnosis is Tough | Sweis Ubels
In today’s episode of The Healthy Christian Leader, host Dwight Habermehl sits down with Pastor Sweis Ubels from Middleton, Nova Scotia. Sweis shares his remarkable journey from growing up as a pastor’s kid in the Netherlands, to farming in Alberta, and eventually being called into pastoral ministry. He opens up about his unexpected stage 4 cancer diagnosis, the challenges of leading through suffering, and how vulnerability, community, and prayer have carried him through. Together, Dwight and Sweis reflect on choosing faith over fear, the role of joy and worship in difficult seasons, and the power of unity in the Body of Christ. This conversation is both deeply encouraging and challenging for leaders navigating trials while seeking to live authentically in Christ.
