A Pastor, A Wife, Four Children & Terminal Cancer

This is a bit “off base” for this blog, but I make no apologies for that.

If you have ever wondered how a person of faith reacts when bad things happen you really should read some of the writing of Chris Drury.

Chris is one of the Pastors at my church, Chris’s wife Linda has cancer that is terminal. But there isn’t just Chris and Linda in this story, they have four young children.

Over recent weeks Chris has started writing about this experience over on our church blog.

As someone who spends most of his time writing about relatively trivial things I look on in awe of the way that they are approaching this situation.

I’ll leave you with some of Chris’s words:

For a while now I’ve been encouraged to write a blog about Linda and facing her cancer together…! After a great weekend together in London, this week has been especially hard, being told that her cancer has progressed and her liver is now beginning to fail. With 4 young kids, that’s tough.
