Ep. 317 Finding Hope and Healing in Grief

If you’re walking through the valley of grief right now, I want to invite you into a gentle, hope-filled conversation. Losing someone we love can feel crushing, overwhelming, and deeply disorienting—even Jesus wept at the tomb of Lazarus. In this episode, we’ll talk honestly about what grief looks like, why it’s normal, and how to navigate it with faith. I’ll share practical ways to name and process your sorrow, how to lean on support from others, and how accepting God’s will—even when we don’t understand it—can bring unexpected peace.

We’ll also explore how to stay connected with your loved one through prayer, how to let go of guilt, and how God can lovingly transform this season of suffering. Whether your loss is recent or long-standing, I pray this reflection brings comfort and a reminder that God is with you in every tear and every longing of your heart.

Join me for this heartfelt conversation, and may it bring you healing and hope.
