A Sister Died by Suicide and God Turned Grief Into a Mission (With Ganel Lyn Condie)

Twelve years ago, Ganel-Lyn Condie's 40-year-old sister Meg died by suicide after a lifetime of mental health struggle. Six weeks later, Ganel-Lyn submitted her first manuscript. That grief became 20 books, more than 2,000 keynotes, and a mission she never planned. In this episode of Why We Believe, host Nathan Gwilliam talks with Ganel-Lyn about how the woman with the issue of blood reframed 13 years of unanswered prayers as the very definition of faith, how the stewardship principle changed the way she parents with lupus, and the day God left a green sticky note on her windshield at the temple when prayer alone was not enough. Ganel-Lyn carries her sister Meg as a mission companion in every conversation about mental health. Her message to anyone who feels done trying: today is not your forever. Even the thread of His robe is enough.
