Faith is not found at the finish line. It grows in the waiting.

Living with chronic illness is more than enduring physical suffering—it is a quiet, daily battle of things unseen. In times of uncertainty and grief, our pain forces us to ask the hard question: Where is God in our suffering?

In A Fight Unseen, Lindsey Thompson invites readers into her own personal journey with chronic illness. Written in the middle of her ongoing battle, she offers readers an honest look at what it means to follow Jesus when healing doesn’t come.

This is not a story with a quick fix or a miraculous healing. It is a story of discovering lasting hope in Jesus—in the middle of the waiting. For those who feel unseen, misunderstood, or even forgotten by God, this book offers companionship in the struggle and a reminder that even in the depths of pain, God is still present and still working.  

Lindsey Thompson is a registered nurse and writer whose early career was spent caring for patients in pediatric oncology and the emergency department. Though surrounded by suffering, it wasn’t until her own diagnosis with chronic illness that she faced a deeper question: What do we do when the suffering doesn’t end?

The question led Lindsey to wrestle more honestly with her faith and rediscover who Christ is in the middle of unrelenting pain. Through her writing, she offers a vulnerable and honest perspective on what it means to follow Jesus when your body has betrayed you and healing hasn’t come.
