Embracing Suffering

What I Learned from Father Turbo Qualls

I can truly say that my recent conversation with Father Turbo Qualls was one of the most enlightening and engaging conversations I’ve ever had in my near decade of podcasting. One of my biggest takeaways from this episode was his view of suffering, and how one way or another, we’re all going to suffer in life. We are all going to suffer in one way or another, but if you’re suffering because you’re orienting in the right direction it can only serve to strengthen your body and soul.

Interestingly enough, I had already somewhat come to this conclusion independently in my own life, as expressed in my recent appearance on the Counterflow podcast with my friend Buck Johnson. But hearing Father Turbo express it in this way really drove home the point on a level I hadn’t quite seen it before.

The Marc Clair Show continues to be a journey of its’ own as far as my own spiritual development goes, and I truly hope it does the same for listeners .
