Send us a textA fire-tested faith, true identity, and hope beyond healingWhat do you do when suffering lingers… prayers seem unanswered… and the life you planned disappears?In this powerful and honest episode of HER Podcast, Pat Domangue sits down with Lara Silverman, Christian author and former federal prosecutor, to talk about faith that is forged—not shattered—in the fire of suffering.After developing a rare neurological illness that left her bedridden for years, Lara lost not only her legal career, but later her husband after just one year of marriage. In what she describes as a Job-like season, Lara wrestled deeply with God—asking hard questions about identity, healing, suffering, and trust.Yet in the midst of loss, God met her with unexpected joy, deep spiritual healing, and a renewed understanding of what it means to find identity in Christ alone.In this conversation, you’ll hear:Why suffering doesn’t mean God has withdrawn His loveHow to wrestle honestly with God without losing your faithWhat it means to find joy without physical healingHow identity is refined when careers, health, and dreams are stripped awayWhy eternity reframes suffering in powerful waysHow God works “grief to glory” in ways we may not fully understandLara also shares the heart behind her memoir Singing Through Fire, a testimony of joy, faith, and surrender forged through prolonged suffering—and why God never wastes a single moment of our pain.If you’re walking through a season of chronic illness, grief, loss, or unanswered prayer, this episode offers biblical truth, deep encouragement, and hope that doesn’t depend on circumstances changing.🎧 Listen in and be reminded: God is still present, still faithful, and still working—even when suffering doesn’t end.📘 Featured Resource from This Episode 👉 Singing Through Fire by Lara Silverman (available on Amazon)A raw and hope-filled memoir about finding joy, faith, and purpose in prolonged suffering.Connect with Lara SilvermanBook: Singing Through Fire (available on Amazon)YouTube: The Silverman ShowInstagram & Facebook: Lara SilvermanConnect with Pat & On Fire MinistriesWebsite & Free Biblical Resources: https://onfire-ministries.orgFollow Pat on social media for encouragement, Bible studies, and podcast updates✨ If this episode encouraged you, please consider rating, reviewing, and sharing HER Podcast—it may be exactly what someone else needs today.onfire-ministries.org
