Through a humorous yet poignant story about physical therapy and a profound insight from Terry's son, the conversation explores how pain can be redemptive and lead us to new life when contextualized within love and trust.

Reflecting on the Paschal Mystery, they discuss Good Friday moments in life that call us to let go, surrender, and trust in the promise of Easter. This episode invites you to reimagine pain not as something to avoid but as part of the journey toward renewal and transformation.
