Send us Fan Mail
In this episode, Lisa shares one of the most painful times of her life. In the middle of making her dream of recording a gospel album come true, the worst happened, as she had what seemed to be an incurable case of laryngitis. She couldn't sing in the studio, couldn't praise the Lord in church, and although her radio gig boss said it was okay for her to stay on the air, she sounded like Kathleen Turner with a throat full of coffee grounds. How does the woman introduced in almost every setting as "the singer," come to grips with losing the only identity she'd every seen herself embracing; a discarded victim...but man, could she sing! How did the Lord reveal His greater gifts? Listen and find out.

Lisa recently got some distressing news when someone believed she was bullying her disabled relative. Horrified, but humbled, she comes face-to-face with a misunderstood (but probably honest) perception of her personality and has to do something about it to make things right. Even if we feel falsely accused, it doesn’t change what others believe about us. Here’s how to handle those steps toward humility.

As a redeemed yet broken vessel and freedom facilitator, Lisa understands the thoughts and feelings of victims so injured they can't possibly let their perpetrator/abuser off the hook. Why should they? What does God say about retribution? Paying those vile offenders back for what they've done? And what if the abuse came from someone charged with protecting the victim, like a parent of loved one? And do I HAVE to forgive...when the pain still makes me so incredibly angry?
This week, let's talk about the way God wants us to respond when we've been called upon to forgive.Ready for some more Christian Drama Queen? Sign up for my newsletter via my website: https://christiandramaqueen.com/ Click on the link for FREE PDF assessment!

As an abuse victim, I'm always scouring the scriptures for the lives and reactions of people of faith when they experience their own abuse, abandonment, pain and suffering. I was surprised to discover something rather odd in the book of Genesis, Chapter 37. Maybe you've never seen it before either.

Since Lisa set out to share the Goodness of God's Love and Redemption months ago, it's been one fiery dart after another. Financial struggles, equipment failure, her own struggles with pain and self-worth,.... Should we be surprised that the enemy sets out to distract, manipulated, belittle and deceive God's chosen? Those called to share the truth of the Father's desire to enable victims to forgive and even LOVE the way the He loves is a powerful message. It changes everything for the broken harlot, as well as the traumatized and discarded daughters of the world. Of COURSE the enemy doesn't want that life-changing message getting out. In this episode Lisa share some of the enemy's attempts to dissuade her from sharing her story and the Father's love for the "unlovable." Pray for her!

About The Diary of a Discarded Daughter - Offering Hope & Redemption Where Pain Once Ruled
From the publisher's feed
Welcome to Diary of a Discarded Daughter, a Christian podcast about healing from childhood trauma, abandonment, abuse, rejection, and discovering who God really is in the middle of…
suffering.
Hosted by Lisa Schafer, founder of Christian Drama Queen Solutions, this podcast follows her forty-year journey through childhood sexual abuse, abandonment, betrayal, and the painful questions that often follow deep emotional wounds.
But this isn't simply a story about surviving trauma. It's the story of a forty-year battle to understand God.
After being abandoned and abused as a child, Lisa spent decades wrestling with questions many Christians quietly carry:
Where was God when I was being hurt?
Why didn't He stop it?
If God loves me, why did He allow it?
How can I trust a Heavenly Father when the people who were supposed to protect me failed me?
The wounds of her childhood shaped not only how she viewed herself, but how she viewed God. Pain, bitterness, fear, and unanswered questions distorted her understanding of His love, His character, and His purpose for her life.
Through years of searching, studying Scripture, wrestling with hard truths, and experiencing the healing power of Jesus Christ, Lisa discovered that God had never abandoned her. Instead, He was patiently renewing her mind, healing her heart, and teaching her to see both herself and Him through the truth of His Word rather than the lens of her trauma.
Each week, Lisa shares personal stories, biblical insights, practical encouragement, and lessons learned along the way as she helps listeners navigate their own healing journeys.
Topics include:
- Healing from childhood abuse and trauma
- Overcoming abandonment and rejection
- Forgiveness and freedom from bitterness
- Breaking generational cycles
- Healing father wounds
- Trusting God after suffering
- Understanding God's sovereignty in pain
- Discovering your identity in Christ
- Finding purpose in your wounds
- Emotional and spiritual healing through biblical truth
With raw honesty, heartfelt conversations, biblical wisdom, and occasional humor at her own expense, Lisa creates a space where women can stop pretending, start healing, and get honest about the wounds they've carried for far too long.
Whether you're struggling with trauma, wrestling with unanswered questions, battling bitterness, or searching for God's purpose in your pain, this podcast offers hope that healing is possible.
Not because the past changes. But because God changes us.
Grab your Bible, bring your questions, and join Lisa each week as she shares how God transforms discarded daughters into women who are healed, restored, and walking confidently in His purpose.
Because your wounds may explain your story—but they do not define it.
God gets the final word.
