Speaking Invitation
The Church Is Full of People Living in Chronic Pain
A faith-based approach helping believers break cycles of pain, medication dependence, and physical decline by addressing root causes.
Chronic Pain Is One of the Most Overlooked Challenges in Today’s Church
Many faithful believers are doing everything they know to do.
They pray.
They push through.
They take the medications they’ve been prescribed.
Yet they remain stuck in cycles of pain.
In many cases, they are told this is simply the result of aging.
But chronic pain is rarely just a mechanical issue.
It is influenced by inflammation, stress, nervous system overload, lifestyle patterns, and the powerful connection between the mind, body, and spirit.
Without understanding these connections, many people remain dependent on temporary solutions that never address the root causes.
That’s where education becomes powerful.
Why This Matters for Your Church
Chronic pain is one of the most common — and least discussed — challenges affecting today’s congregations. Many faithful believers are:
- Living with ongoing joint pain or back pain
- Dependent on medications that offer temporary relief
- Limiting their service, mobility, and engagement
- Quietly accepting pain as a normal part of aging
But pain was never designed to define a believer’s future. As a Doctor of Physical Therapy, Dr. Adina Verrett, has seen over her 30 years that most chronic pain cycles persist not because people lack faith — but because they lack practical education.
When biblical stewardship, mind-body understanding, and practical lifestyle strategies come together, many people discover new hope and new possibilities for recovery.
