In this episode of "Faith Under Fire," host Jeff King sits down with author and podcaster Jennifer Slattery to explore the profound concept of "walking with a limp." Jennifer shares her personal journey of living with chronic illness and how it has deepened her faith and compassion. Together, they discuss the cultural pressures to hide weaknesses and the beauty of embracing them as a path to spiritual maturity.

Jennifer recounts her experiences as a fiction writer inspired by her desire to share her faith through storytelling. She highlights the power of fiction to reach hearts and minds in ways that direct discourse sometimes cannot. The conversation delves into the lessons learned from suffering, the importance of relying on Christ, and the transformative power of vulnerability.
