231 Not One Tear Wasted: Trusting God Through Every Loss
Grief isn’t a one-time event - it’s a thread that weaves its way through different seasons of our lives. In this deeply personal episode, I share the story of how I’ve walked through the grief of losing my dad at 33, my mom at 54, my son at 59, and most recently, my beloved dog Huckle just before turning 66.
Each loss was different. Each one shaped me. And through it all, even when I wasn’t walking with God - He never left.
For years, I turned to New Age and occult teachings to try and explain away my pain. But when I lost my son, everything unraveled. That grief broke open what none of those spiritual teachings could reach—and it was through that unraveling that I finally found the true comfort and healing of Jesus Christ.
In this episode, I invite you into an honest conversation about:
- Why grief feels different depending on the loss
- How spiritual bypassing in the New Age can numb real sorrow
- What the Bible says about mourning, comfort, and eternity
- Stories of Biblical women who experienced profound loss
- How God wastes no tear—even when we’ve walked through grief without Him
Whether you’ve lost a parent, a child, a pet, a marriage, or a version of yourself, this episode is a sacred space to reflect, grieve, and begin healing.
I want you to know: God sees your sorrow. He remembers your tears. And He is near—even in the silence.
The Illuminated Connection Call is a free conversation where we talk heart to heart—no pressure, no agenda. I’d love to hear what’s on your heart, where you are in your life and spiritual journey, and what you’re sensing God may be stirring in you. Whether you’re just beginning to question the New Age path, exploring Biblical truth, are already living a God-led life, or simply feeling lost and unsure—this space is for you.
