Rob Traultoff is a small group host, PEACE team member and Saddleback attender. But, what sets Rob apart is that he does all this from his home, specifically, from his bed where he is confined because of a degenerative spine condition.

Watch this video to hear from Rob about how he has weathered the unexpected storms of life. A major auto accident, the resultant loss of his mother and brother, becoming bedridden and becoming unable to continue his medical practice – all these events could have sidelined Rob, but he has chosen to let God use him exactly where he's at.

Pastor Rick spoke this weekend on how we can overcome discouragement. See how Rob is taking Pastor Rick's message to heart each and every day.

Share this video with someone who is feeling discouraged. Make a difference by showing them that, with God, we can rise from the ashes.

I,too,suffer from spinal degenerative problems along with stenosis and aggravated by fibromyalgia. When the latter strikes my already-traumatized back (3 accidents and a fall backward, the pain is almost unbearable and leaves me unable to even think or remember. However, I have taken the opportunity to study the bible and have a strong desire to teach. I live in a 50 condo community and strongly desire to teach weekly or monthly, but I never know when a severe attack of pain will hit me. Any suggestions? You are indeed remarkable--a true servant of Christ!
