What does Easter have to do with your everyday struggles?
In this Easter episode of Practicing Catholic Podcast, Taylor Kemp and Dr. Scott Hefelfinger explore the pattern of death and resurrection—not just in Christ, but in our own lives. From small daily frustrations to life-altering trials, they share personal stories of loss, conversion, identity shifts, and healing—and how God brings new life out of each one.
You’ll hear:
How “death moments” show up in ordinary life
Powerful personal stories of conversion, family brokenness, and career change
Why suffering can actually lead to deeper joy and identity
Practical ways to navigate difficult seasons with faith
How to recognize God’s providence even when you can’t see the outcome
If you’re in a hard season—or coming out of one—this episode will help you hold onto hope and recognize how God is working in the midst of it all.
Christ’s resurrection isn’t just something we celebrate—it’s something we live.
