I recorded the bulk of this back in 2018, when all three of my adult children were wandering terribly far from God. I recount my struggles in the 80's with illness and suicidal thoughts. And wondering where God was while I was suffering with the natural consequences of being the local harlot. Tune in and find out what the Holy Spirit said to me then, and what He is saying to all of us now. Share the broadcast!

When daughters grow up without fathers, or have abusive fathers, they can develop a warped sense of Who their Heavenly Father is and wants to be in their lives. Thoughts of their unworthiness can lead to poor life choices and immorality. The journey to heal is long and hard, but worth the effort. In this episode, the host shares the introduction to her published Bible Study, Discarded: a daughter's journey to reclaim freedom and forgive the father that left her behind.

How many times have we read, recited, memorized and shared John 3:16?? We've repeated it over and over again...He loves us. But in this episode, Lisa uses Psalm 139 to prove His actions have always spoken His love for us louder than His words. He sees, knows, holds, protects, and thinks constantly about you, Beloved! Would He do that for someone He DIDN'T love??

Send us Fan Mail
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! In this episode, I share just a few of the most important things I've learned as a Christian Drama Queen in the last year. 1. You're never to old to do new things. Heck! I wrote a Bible Study this past year! 2. It's never too late for God to give you the desires of your heart. 3. No matter your age, God still requires steps and acts of faith. 4. Make no mistake about it...you're never too old for the enemy of your soul to try and destroy you, your relationships, your Christian testimony in a lost and dying world.

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.
