Praying Moms of Estranged Children - Pray, Trust in God, Prodigal, Estrangement, God’s Peace, Scriptures

What have you lost that you’ve never fully acknowledged? Have you been trying to move forward… without really facing the pain of estrangement or broken relationships? Could unprocessed loss be shaping how you see your life, your relationships, or even how you trust in God? And when was the last time you slowed down long enough to pray about the pain you’ve been carrying?

In this conversation, we’re slowing things down to explore the connection between loss, grief, and faith—especially for the Christian woman walking through estrangement or loving a prodigal child. If you’ve been carrying unresolved pain or wondering why it’s so hard to find God’s peace, this conversation will help you begin to understand why.

I’m sharing how loss—especially repeated or unexpected loss—can quietly shape your beliefs, your expectations, and your ability to trust God’s promises. You’ll also be guided through a simple, reflective exercise where you’ll begin to pray through your pain, acknowledge what’s been lost, and invite God into those places so true healing can begin.

This episode is for y ou if you’re ready to stop avoiding the pain, bring it into the light, and begin experiencing a deeper level of healing, and renewed trust in God.

If this episode stirred up some deeper emotions for you, you don’t have to walk through that alone. Inside my Peaceful Parenting Call, we create space to process what you’re carrying—while finding peace in the middle of it.

Together, we’ll create a plan to help you take intentional steps forward so you can move from emotional overwhelm to peace. Schedule a call Peaceful Parenting Call at: https://tidycal.com/sarahwall/60-minute-coaching

Seasons of adversity have a way of shaking our faith, and that’s when we have to hang on. In this powerful, scripture-based episode, I’m joined by special guest Lori Owens, host of the Practical Solutions for PTSD podcast. 

Lori shares how the Lord came through for her after a traumatic, life-altering experience – growing her faith and restoring her peace and joy. Together, we talk about how difficult it can be to feel God’s peace and presence during seasons of despair, and how the power of God’s love still shines through in emotionally dark moments.

After big moments of victory,  we can sometimes find ourselves crashing and grappling with the silence that follows. In those moments, it can feel like we’re back at square one. Yet we can still trust in God to heal, protect, and restore our strength.

Even when it feels like your prodigal or estranged child isn’t coming home, God’s character doesn’t change. When all hope seems lost, His love is still good and true. 

We learn to build our life on truth– not feelings – and we don’t have to hide from our sadness. Lori and Sarah also talk about Bible characters who struggled with adversity, how adversity can push us closer to the Lord, and that we can pray through difficult seasons like estrangement while asking God what He’s teaching us along the way.
