What happens when doctors spend 27 years running tests and still can't explain why your body is in constant pain? Crystal Gwilliam has lived that reality since she was 16 years old. Bedridden for months at a time, wheelchair-bound, and facing brain surgery that cost her 70% of her field of vision, she still raised three daughters on a foundation of faith and consistency. In this episode of Why We Believe, host Nathan Gwilliam sits down with his wife of 27 years to hear her story of finding Christ on the top bunk of her childhood bedroom, learning to savor moments as the molecules of eternity, and the day she flew to Portland, went into a doctor's office in a wheelchair, and walked out healed. Her family was so confident in the miracle that they left the wheelchair behind. Crystal shares how chronic illness taught her to focus on what matters most and why she still chooses to believe despite decades of unexplained suffering.
