Author and grief counselor Jeannie Ewing (From Grief to Grace) joins Dr. Ken Craycraft on Driving Home the Faith to discuss how Catholic Christians handle the unchosen burdens of life. Framing the conversation around Tim O'Brien’s classic The Things They Carried, Jeannie explores the concept of "invisible backpacks"—the chronic grief, caregiving demands, and daily hardships handed to us. Moving beyond flippant "offer it up" cliches, Jeannie shares how showing up with a good heart in the present moment allows God's grace to transform our heaviest crosses into bearers of redemption.
