Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here…

Sarah Headshot Option 1

My name is Sarah Walton and I’m a stay-at-home mom with 4 kids under the age of 16 (in other words, I pretty much never look like this other than when I have to appear like I’m all put together and such!). My family and I recently uprooted from Chicago, Illinois, and have been planted in the beautiful city of Colorado Springs. When I’m not wearing my mom hat and the responsibilities of daily life, I enjoy writing and speaking about what the Lord is teaching me in his Word and through the many trials that he’s allowed in my life. Although I wouldn’t have necessarily chosen this path, God seems to have called me to a “ministry of suffering”, which I often say is a painful privilege.

Through the years of raising a child with behavioral/neurological challenges, dealing with daily chronic illness in myself and four children (due to Lyme Disease and other causes), financial loss, a deteriorated ankle slowly taking my ability to walk, and the strain it all puts on our marriage, God has taught me that I know far less than I think I do and there is a lot of work still to be done in me. But what I do know is that my true hope can be found in nothing but Jesus, and the reality is, people all around us are hurting in one way or another in this fallen world. Because of that, I have found great joy in sharing the deep lessons God is continually teaching me through the ups and downs of life and how his Word speaks into every nook and cranny of it.

To be clear – I don’t have all the answers. And I certainly don’t have the energy for empty cliches. But if you’re trying to navigate the complexities of this life, striving to know and follow Jesus as you do, then you’re in the right place, and I hope you’ll stick around and join me in that process.

My Writing

Besides writing for several Christian ministries, I’ve had the privilege of co-authoring (along with Kristen Wetherell) Hope When It Hurts: Biblical Reflections to Grasp God’s Purpose in Your Suffering. My husband, Jeff, and I have also had the privilege of writing a follow-up book for marriages navigating the trials of life, called Together Through the Storms: Biblical Encouragements For Your Marriage When Life Hurts. In 2022, I released a short evangelistic book that I’ve written for both non-Christians and Christians alike. You can order Tears and Tossings: Hope in the Waves of Life here. 

And last but not least, I’m so excited to share that my mom and I have just co-written a motherhood book titled, He Gives More Grace: 30 Hope-filled Reflections for the ups and downs of motherhood, releasing December 1, 2023. You can pre-order it here! (Books pictured below)

If you’d like to connect with me elsewhere, you can find me on Instagram at @Sarahpwalton.

My Family

These are my people. The ones who have stuck by my side through thick and thin, richer and poorer, sickness and health, and laughter and tears.

I met my main squeeze, Jeff, my freshman year of college at Taylor University after my brother (who was friends with him) asked Jeff if he would “keep an eye on me” for him while he was oversees for a semester. Jeff took that job very seriously, so we’ve now been married for 20 years. We have four children, all of whom make us proud to call ourselves their parents. They’ve made us laugh until we cried, cry until the tears ran dry, stripped us of any confidence that we actually know what we’re doing, and given us the joy of countless memories that I wouldn’t trade for the world. God is continually teaching me to let go of what I think I want and need, and instead fix my eyes on things of eternal value. I fail often and, at times, feel like I’m holding onto faith the size of a mustard seed. But Christ promises to be faithful until the end. Until then, I take up my cross daily and seek to follow him as he writes a story in my life that is so much bigger than me. I hope you’ll join me on this journey.

Home is around the corner,

Sarah Walton

      8. Sarah, I’m sorry to post in the reply section, but I couldn’t figure out how to do it otherwise. I’m a realatively new writer and I have many personal experiences to draw from when talking about Jesus Christ and the hope I have in him. I have a son with special needs and want to protect his identity. How does a writer, who is seeking publication do this? My inclination is to use a pen name and pseudo name for him. Thank you!

      9. Hi Robyn, that’s a really hard thing to do well. I think you mostly need to pray about what you’d be ok with him seeing someday (to whatever extent he could understand). It’s a hard line to walk – sharing in a way that will help others while also protecting the child that is involved. I still find this a very hard road to navigate!

      10. Thank you so much Sarah. My son is 22 and God has allowed and used many hard circumstances to write not only my son’s story but our family as a whole. I know there are many that share a similar experience, but my husband and I are praying about what I share and also what my son is comfortable with. I love your writing and you and your family have so much to share through the hard reality of Lyme’s disease x 5. Blessings on your journey.

  2. Sarah, thank you so much for strengthening your brothers by penning “Pray Them Home.” I have three, maybe four, out of five children who have rejected Christ. I made a small cheat sheet of your article and saved it in a memo on my phone so that every time I begin to worry, I pull it up and start praying for them. Thank you for being faithful.

  3. Hi Sarah! I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your wonderful book. Your faith, writing, and ever growing love and trust in the Lord is inspiring. Other than the Bible, it has been a lifeline for me. I too suffer from Lymes, Hashimotos as well as other co-morbid conditions. As a mother of two boys with special needs, some days just seem to be about survival. Thank you for sharing that there is purpose and beauty in suffering. Here’s a verse that has given me comfort “ I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.”-Psalm 27:13-14. If you feel comfortable, I would love to send you and your sweet children a package of some of our favorite goodies. We too are on a special diet-gluten-free, dairy free, soy free, and dye free. Please feel free to email me. Lifting you and your family up in prayer and may God continue to richly bless you!❤️

    1. Wow, Kim. I’m so encouraged and blessed by this. I’m so sorry for how you have suffered, but praising God for how he has strengthened you and given you the eyes to see his greater purposes in your pain (even if it’s just a glimpse). I’m humbled and incredibly grateful that he used HWIH to be a part of that process.
      You are so sweet to want to give to us when you yourself are struggling as well. What a picture of comforting others out of the comfort we have received from Christ. I will see if I can email you to at least chat more in person. Thank you, sister, for your encouragement and taking the time to share how God has helped you though the book. Blessings to you and your family, Sarah

    Concerning Lyme. Perhaps this will help you:
    http://mmstestimonials.is/lyme-disease.
    I have taken the stuff and can vouch that it’s difficult and therefore gradual, and the die off Herxheimer reaction may make you feel worse for a bit, but I’ve read in several places that Lyme can be killed by MMS solution. Google Jim Humble
    Your doctor will not approve using what is in effect water purification drops to self medicate, but read, read, read! At any rate, I kid you not, I started the introductory tolerance phase and even that cured me of flu in just a few hours, with no harm. Don’t be afraid of it.
    The Lord bless and keep you all.

  8. Dear Sarah,

    By way of introduction, I am Adrian from Singapore.

    I first came across one of your articles on Sunday and, through the course of this week, I have read all of your other articles posted on the Desiring God website. I am very moved by your life’s story and very blessed by the Biblical concepts you had shared in your articles.

    I noticed from you have co-authored a book entitled “Hope When It Hurts”. Just so you know, I would try to purchase a number of copies of this book to give away to my friends and colleagues, for I believe it will be a great encouragement to others.

    God bless you. And thank you for being such a blessing, even to people who are living half way around the globe from where you are!

    Regards,
    Adrian

  9. Dear Sarah,
    Thank you so much for the articles you write. We have especially been encouraged by the articles on Desiring God. Before I ask you a question I would like to introduce myself. My name is Marieke den Butter, I am married to Jaap and we have 8 children. I am Dutch. Together with my friend Wilma Samyn I wrote a book with encouragements for mothers, that was published in the summer of 2016 (100 bemoedigingen voor moeders). We have a facebook page where we post about 3 encouragements a week. (www.facebook.com/100BVM). Since the beginning of this year we have a website where we post more in depth articles for Women. (www.sieraadvoorgod.org). We really love the articles you write for Desiring God and we would like to ask your permission to translate them into Dutch to post on our website. We will give the credit to you and we will mention that we found the article on Desiring God.
    Thank you so much for your commitment to Christ and for encouraging others to hope in hurt.
    May God bless you,
    Marieke den Butter

    2. I promise it will get better! From experience I know that It is hard to keep faith in something. I prayed for my mother for 2 years and I still am! She dose drugs and is not the best person. It hurts me and my other siblings. But when I would keep faith I would feel better and be happier. But when I would let every little thing get me down it would just tear me apart and I would lose faith then that pain would never leave. As soon as I thought about it and prayed, keep my faith up, it changed my whole perspective for the better. I know it’s hard trust me. But when you give it all to God you feel one million times better! It may not be fixed right away but it takes time. God wants to use your story and use your pain to create something beautiful and help others. Try to stay focused on that and keep trucking. I will keep you in my prayers!

    3. Joey, I can so relate. Another relapse and more co-infections. But I can tell you our Living God is the only way. Are you in treatment? There are many protocols and finding what works best for you, under a LLMD is crucial.
      Some times we have to try new things, others it takes a lot of time, maybe years. It is such a complex disease.

  12. Hi Sarah-I am so thankful for your book “Hope When It Hurts” I am working through it my self right now but also bought several copies to pass out to other people. I praise God that you are living out 2 Corinthians 1:3-4! I am striving to do the same in my life.

    What intrigued me to buy your book in the first place actually came from your introduction. I couldn’t believe how it mirrored EXACTLY what my family is suffering through right now! It is your first paragraph in your story. You don’t go into detail about your high school trauma but what you do reveal sounds amazingly similar to my daughter, Hannah’s, story. She just finished high school having suffered through peer abuse which resulted in a full-fledged eating disorder and depression. She hates herself and is angry all the time. The darkness during this has, at times, been almost unbearable. Hannah is seeing a counselor and desperately desires to get better but is impatient in the process.

    Could you share more about your story’s “first paragraph?” What was the turning point for you that caused you to give up your attempt to live for Christ AND for the world? As a young woman what did committing yourself to following Christ look like? What steps did you take in that pursuit? How did you break free from your downward spiral? Hannah needs hope from someone who has walked this same path. I know this is why God brought me to you.

    Looking forward to your reply!

    Holding onto Jesus,
    Nancy

      2. Hi Sarah, I was looking online to see if anyone had encountered a spiritual emotional root of Lymes disease. Your blog came up…I saw a bit of what you said you have endured. I actually had Lymes about five years ago. I have never been in that sort of pain at any other time in my life. I did not sleep for an entire two weeks. Laying down in a bed hurt too much so I sat with a hot water bottle and got up and paced, the pain was such that it did not allow me to even doze…The only way I survived was that the Lord equated a small semblance of what sleep would have provided. As I paced I would speak out healing scripture…At the end of two weeks I finally prayed out loud at three am asking the Lord if there was an open door. He answered me immediately and said that I had been on a treadmill of idolatry. I was so focused on healing my marriage that it had unknowingly become an idol…it was busywork from the enemy. As soon as I repented, the relentless head to toe pain left, like a switch had been turned off. I had lost so much weight that I looked like a concentration camp victim, but I knew I had been healed…and so I was, completely. I believe this disease is a threefold cord, but if you break the spiritual portion, the rest has to let go. I also believe that the spiritual portion is a religious spirit. Idolatry would certainly come under that heading. Those are the most powerful of the spirits. About twelve years before that I was healed in a similar way during a third recurrence of breast cancer. The Lord showed me how to replace the root lie with its equal and opposite truth. When I did this, the pain vanished and I was healed completely. These diseases do indeed have emotional spiritual roots, and ones which are considered to be incurable likely have a much stronger spiritual component. I could say more, but I will end here. If you would like to contact me, please feel free to do so.

  13. I am so thankful for your book. When I read the chapter “The lonely path to the summit, “ it spoke directly to me and what my life has been the last few years. In 2015 my son suffered a traumatic Brain injury. We weren’t given much hope, for 21 days we didn’t know if he’d survive. God raised him up and he’s alive, I tell people I have a walking miracle at my house. I’m so thankful to have him, but he definitely has some life altering challenges. I know it’s all part of God’s plan, but no one can relate. They say I should just be thankful and I’m lucky to have him. But this chapter ministered to me, I feel that loneliness that you speak of. Thanks for spilling your heart and trials will others, this book encouraged me so much!! Have you written any other books?

    1. Hi Patrice! I’m so grateful to hear how the book (especially the chapter on loneliness) encouraged you. I’m so sorry to hear about your son. It makes a lot of sense that you feel the loneliness of others assuming you just be grateful and not really understanding or seeing the daily struggles you continue to carry. I battle that when I hear someone comment on how “normal” my child seems whenever they see him…not realizing that most people don’t see the incredible struggles we deal with on a daily basis because he works so hard to hold it together in public. Over and over I have to trust other’s opinions to the Lord, asking Him to help me rest in His truth and the peace that He knows and sees all. Anyway, I’m so grateful that the Lord spared your son, but I pray that He will also equip you for the days ahead as you help him navigate and live his new normal. Anyway, as for your question – no I have not written any other books as of yet. It is possible that I will be working on a new one in the very near future, spun off of Hope When It Hurts, but for married couples. Stay tuned!

      1. Sarah, do you have a copy of Spurgeon’s, “The Pastor in Prayer”? It’s a compilation of many of his congregational prayers and I cannot say enough good things about it, at least, it’s continually blessed me. It’s my most treasured book of prayers.

        You will not offend me if you aren’t interested and you do not need to explain. But I would love to order you a copy from Amazon if you would feel comfortable and you are interested. I was given a very generous gift card recently and it would be my joy to share in this way. You have so blessed me with your writing.

  20. Sarah, I just read an old article in HomeLife magazine. I too live with chronic pain due to degenerative spine disease. That, however, is not why I write. As I was closing the magazine a still small voice told me to email you first. Over a year ago, my 11 yr old son started becoming very tired. He lost his appetite and would hardly eat or drink. It got to a point where he was sleeping 20 hours a day. The waking hours were in half hour increments at best. He said his body hurt. The doctors originally said it was growing pains, but the symptoms only got worse. My chiropractor told me to have him tested for tick borne diseases. Turns out he tested positive for Rocky Mtn Spotted Fever. They did not give me any hope. I went back to my chiropractor who told me about an Amish herbal parasite cleanse. After about a month of taking it twice daily, he started showing slight improvements. Today he is an active teenager. I do not know if it will help your family or not. All I know is that the Spirit would not let me close this magazine until I found your blog and shared our experience. It’s website ilink is https://www.yourhealthbydesign.com/full-30-day-parasite-cleanse-2-16-ounce-bottles/

    My chiropractor said he recommends this to his patients with tick diseases. He is not affiliated with this site either. I pray that this would be God’s way of giving your family a miracle.

    I have no idea if it would help you or your family, but in the comment section on this remedy it said it was used to treat Lyme’s when used in correlation with another remedy.

  22. Sarah, good afternoon: read your thoughts online at https://unlockingthebible.org/2015/07/four-lies-we-believe-when-we-are-feeling-lonely/ and curious why by your 4th sentence you start with a “I remember when …” ? What has happened to faith-based self-help gurus like you who cannot simply counsel from Scripture or give Biblical examples that reader can relate to? Address the vital matter of how a Christian truth or doctrine guides and teaches us in life instead of always regurgitating your “remember whens”!!!

    1. Hi, I’m not really what this comment is supposed to achieve because it doesn’t seem to make much sense in regards to the article (which is based in scripture). I’m as far from a “self-help” guru as they come. I open up the article with sharing some personal experience that relates to the topic I’m speaking to (loneliness), but the rest of the article talks about how God’s Word speaks to the lies that we often believe when we battle loneliness. That is not “my wisdom”, but Scripture’s. There are many people who are truly preaching false gospels – so please don’t put your energy toward those of us who are truly desiring to point others to Christ, God’s word, and the truth. Sharing some personal ways I relate to God’s Word doesn’t negate the truth that I write about. ~Sarah

  27. Sarah, thank you so much for obeying God’s call for you to share His word through your testimony. Hope When It Hurts helped me navigate my pain and fear after our adult son’s traumatic brain injury at the end of 2019 (he now lives with us). We still look for hope each day and pray that God will redeem the brokenness for His glory. I gave my sister a copy of the book while she was going through chemo last year as well; she said it was the first thing she had read that felt like someone understood what it was like- single, alone during COVID and dealing with the cancer. Despite being in such different places and circumstances in life, God’s Truth, His character and His promises are the same for all of us. Thank you for what it must cost you in time and emotional and spiritual investment to share your insights and God’s word. – Janine

  28. Hallo Sarah,

    I have just finished reading an article you wrote for Unlocking the Bible called – What Does it really mean to be blessed. I really could relate and want to thank you for confirming my thoughts on this matter of being blessed. I wrote a book 2 years ago on Our Christian Identity called “Who am I” and what I found interesting in your article is that it so amazingly correlated to the passage from Ephesians 1 that I took to identify 9 identities and expand on them in my own book. Being Blessed was also an Identity, but I also focussed on the fact that being Blessed with God himself in our lives us much greater than earthly blessings.
    Thank you for your insight and beautiful way of writing and sharing.

  29. Good day,

    I wanted to reach out to you about our interest in you speaking on the TEDx stage.

    We’re always searching for authentic, talented voices that we believe would absolutely light up a TEDx event. Frankly, I came across you, and the link to your book, only recently. I then found a podcast where you were the guest and I listened to that a bit to get a read on your perspective and style.

    By way of introduction, I’m Steve Krupa, the Head of Business Development for IdeaCasters. At IdeaCasters, we take our clients from the initial idea, through the writing, scripting, blocking, and memorization of a killer TEDx script, and through the rehearsals, dress rehearsals and, finally, the magic of the TEDx talk itself. We have a Digital Optimization System we build for client use in order to maximize and amplify the value of their new TEDx talk worldwide…..

    It’s the TEDx speaking process, start to finish, delivered on a silver platter….and largely DONE FOR YOU.

    Not to brag or anything….. but we DO have a 100% success rate in guiding our clients to a a successful TEDx talk.……and NOTHING compares with the value and power of a TEDx talk to a business, or as a personal stamp of authority and indicator of expert status.

    In fact, a brilliant TEDx talk is likely the single biggest accelerant to success and mastery for the right person or business.

    We think you’d be a fantastic candidate for a TEDx talk, plain and simple.

    Please, check us out on the web at: http://www.ideacasters.com

    My scheduling link is here:-https://ideacasters.com/strategy-call-with-steve/
    And, There is a quick 1.5 min video that explains the 6 stage process.,,, It has worked, as mentioned, 100% of the time, without fail: it’s on our site> http://www.ideacasters.com

    Thanks for taking the time to consider our thoughts on this subject, we really do want to speak with you if you are interested.

    Thanks and enjoy the day,
    Steve Krupa

    1. Hi Joy, thanks so much for reaching out! Sounds like a great ministry. I did glance the christian literary awards and I saw there’s a fee to enter, so unfortunately I can’t spend money on that right now. But thank you for reaching out and letting me know! God bless, Sarah

  32. Hi Sarah,
    Have just been reading “Tears and Tossings”..page 68…”but I am with you and can see things that you aren’t yet able to see”. One of those things was God’s plan for me to read your words and hear of your experience.. thought you should know. Keep believing.
    From another Sarah

  33. Hello,

    I am writing to tell you “thank you ” for writing Hope when it Hurts. I have recently been diagnosed with an autoimmune condition and have been deeply encouraged by your words in this book. I have decided to keep this book by my bedside because I frequently have sleepless nights due to my condition and plan to read this on those nights to remind myself of God’s closeness in those lonely moments. Thank you again and may God bless you for the ways you have blessed others.

  34. Thank you for your recent blog post regarding God’s faithfulness and entering 2024 with a look toward Him and His grace. Happy New Year and may we all grow in our knowledge of God and our love for Him. I printed out the conversation cards (for the grandkids visits) and wanted you to know that the colors you have chosen do not print terribly well. I understand they match your new book but I don’t think I will be able to use them as effectively as hoped due to the difficulty in reading the white font.

    1. Thank you for your response! I’m so sorry the cards didn’t show up clearly. I printed them and didn’t seem to have any issues, but they may print up differently on different printers. Could you possibly enlarge them before you print and that may make them easier to read? Again, so sorry about that. My publisher designed them, so there isn’t much I can change on my end. Hopefully you can find a way to adapt them to be usable. Sorry for the inconvenience and Happy New Year to you as well!
