Impact Nations Podcast
Welcome to the Impact Nations Podcast, where we explore what it means to live out the Gospel—not just in theory, but in everyday life.
Hosted by Tim Stewart, often joined by Impact Nations co-founder Steve Stewart, this podcast brings together theology, real-world stories, and practical ministry to help you see how the Kingdom of God transforms lives—both spiritually and physically.
We believe the Gospel is more than words.
It’s good news for the poor, freedom for the oppressed, healing for the broken, and purpose for every person.

Dr. Kelly Kapic: Finding God in Grief, Pain, and Unanswered Prayers | Summer Series 2026
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Suffering raises difficult questions about God, faith, and what it means to follow Jesus in a broken world. In this episode of Summer Series 2026, Tim Stewart welcomes theologian and author Dr. Kelly Kapic for an honest conversation about grief, pain, lament, and unanswered prayers.
Drawing from years of academic research and personal experience caring for his wife through chronic illness, Dr. Kapic explores why Christians need to rediscover the language of lament, how we can acknowledge the realities of suffering without denying God's goodness, and why the Incarnation reveals a God who enters into our pain rather than remaining distant from it.
Together, they discuss the importance of community in seasons of suffering, the relationship between forgiveness and healing, and how the Gospel offers not merely escape from this world, but participation in God's ongoing work of restoration.
If you've wrestled with disappointment, loss, chronic pain, or questions about where God is in the midst of suffering, this episode offers thoughtful guidance, theological depth, and hope for the journey.
In this episode:
• Rediscovering lament as a faithful response to suffering
• Holding together grief and God's goodness
• Finding God's presence in pain through the Incarnation
• Why honest faith makes room for sorrow and questions
• The healing role of Christian community
• Forgiveness as part of restoration and healing
• Hope in the midst of grief, pain, and unanswered prayers
