**Stage IV Wisdom: Finding Joy Through Christ in the Cancer Journey**
Life doesn't stop when you hear the words "Stage IV." In fact, for many, it's where the most profound wisdom begins.
Welcome to Stage IV Wisdom, a Christian-based podcast hosted by Adam Stier that explores the intersection of faith, cancer, and the relentless pursuit of joy in the midst of life's hardest battles. Whether you're walking through your own diagnosis, supporting a loved one, or simply seeking encouragement in difficult times, this podcast is a sanctuary of hope, honest conversation, and Christ-centered perspective.
**What You'll Find Here:**
- Real stories from those living with advanced cancer who've discovered unexpected joy
- Biblical insights and spiritual encouragement for the cancer journey
- Practical wisdom for navigating treatment, relationships, and daily life
- Honest conversations about faith, fear, suffering, and hope
- Reminders that even in Stage IV, God's grace is sufficient and His mercies are new every morning
**Our Mission:**
Stage IV Wisdom exists to remind you that a cancer diagnosis doesn't define your story—Christ does. We believe that joy isn't found in the absence of suffering, but in the presence of Jesus. Here, we don't shy away from the hard questions, the dark days, or the valley of shadows. Instead, we walk through them together, anchored in the unshakeable truth that God is with us, for us, and working all things for His glory and our good.
**For:**
- Cancer patients and survivors
- Caregivers and family members
- Anyone seeking hope in chronic illness
- Christians looking for real, authentic faith conversations
- Those who need reminding that joy is possible, even now
Join us as we discover that wisdom often comes not from avoiding the storm, but from learning to dance in the rain—with Christ as our strength, our hope, and our joy.
