My guest, Kim Todd, has faced many challenges, but none tougher than watching difficult and painful challenges impact her sons.

Like any parent, she wished she could fix their challenges or soften the pain, but Kim knew God would grow their faith as they learned how to fight to overcome. Their challenges were opportunities for their growth.

But her sons' challenges were also opportunities for God to grow her faith and trust as well.

Noteable quotes:
* "Now I look back, and I see God's hand in everything."
* "God goes before us. he goes before us to fight our battles."
* "It's those two things living together - heartbreak and comfort - at the same time. Heartbreak and hope at the same time."

Bible verses:
* Romans 8:26
* Philippians 4:7
* Deuteronomy 31:8
* Psalm 144:1 (Kim's fight verse)
