This week, I’m sharing from a place of deep lament after the devastating floods in the Texas Hill Country. So many lives lost. So much pain. And yet, even in the valley of death, God’s presence is near.

In this episode, I reflect on what I’ve learned while grieving—lessons on how to sit with sorrow, how to pray when words fail, and how to be a faithful witness to another’s pain. I talk about the holy work of showing up, of listening without trying to fix, and of remembering that grief is love with nowhere to go.

You'll hear encouragement rooted in Scripture: from Romans 12:15’s call to mourn with those who mourn, to the comfort of 2 Corinthians 1:4, and the steadfast promise of Psalm 23:4.

Whether you're grieving yourself or standing beside someone who is, may this episode be a tender reminder: Jesus is close to the brokenhearted. He walks with us, even here.

Let’s hold space together—for sorrow, for comfort, and for hope.

🕯️ Listen now, and be reminded that God is with us—even in the darkest valley.
