Some of the hardest parts of grief are the ones no one sees. They’re the quiet moments you carry in silence — the dates no one remembers, the chair no one fills, the ache that never really leaves. But what if those hidden moments could become holy ground?

In today’s episode, Teresa opens her heart to share the real truths grieving moms live with every single day — the parts no one talks about — and teaches how speaking them out loud can become an act of healing and worship.

• Why God calls the hidden places of your grief holy

• How to turn unspoken pain into lament

• The meaning behind Psalm 147:3 

• Why naming what hurts out loud invites God to heal what’s unseen

Even when no one else understands, friend, God does. He’s not afraid of what you carry — He’s waiting to meet you in it.

When grief feels heavy and God feels quiet, the silence can seem unbearable. In this episode, Teresa Davis shares how God uses those quiet, hidden seasons to shape your faith, heal your heart, and stop the pain. 

If you’ve ever wondered why God feels silent after loss—or how to find peace in that silence—this message will meet you right where you are.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why silence isn’t punishment, but an invitation from God.

• How David’s years “in the field” prepared him for his calling.

• The difference between painful silence and redeemed silence.

• What it means to let truth take up more space than pain.

• How to begin hearing God’s voice again in your own grief.

If your silence feels more like torture than transformation, Teresa invites you to explore how to fill that space with God’s truth—so peace can begin to grow again.

When your child went to heaven, the world saw one loss — but your heart knows it wasn’t just one. It was friendships that faded when people didn’t know what to say. It was family relationships that shifted when everyone grieved differently. It was dreams, routines, and the sense of who you were before everything changed.

Grief doesn’t stop at the moment of loss — it ripples into every part of life. In this episode, we’re uncovering the collateral damage that most grieving moms never talk about — and the tender ways God begins to rebuild what feels beyond repair.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• What the Bible shows us about God’s timing when He seems silent in our pain

• Why the hidden losses beneath your child’s death matter — and how naming them brings healing

• How to rebuild when faith feels different and relationships no longer fit

• What it means to live restored, not the same, but redeemed

You don’t have to keep pretending you’re okay, friend. Press play — and let’s talk about how God meets you in the wreckage and starts rebuilding your heart, one piece at a time.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you finally stopped trying to hold it all together? If you let the mask of “I’m fine” slip for just a moment? So many grieving moms believe strength means smiling through the pain—but what if real strength is something entirely different?

✨Takeaways

• The surprising reason “being strong” can actually keep you from healing.

• What 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 teaches about God’s power showing up in weakness.

• How to recognize when the “cloak of strong” has become a burden instead of a blessing.

• Why surrender is not failure—it’s the moment peace begins.

🎧  Friend, you don’t have to be the strong one anymore. God isn’t asking you to prove your strength; He’s inviting you to trust His. Press play on this episode and let these few minutes remind you that the world doesn’t need your perfection—it needs your honesty, because that’s where His power shines through.

When your child dies, peace feels foreign. It’s not just the absence of calm—it feels unreachable, like something other people get to have but you don’t anymore. If that’s you, friend, this episode will help you see peace differently. Not as something waiting at the end of your pain, but as a gift Jesus offers right in the middle of it.

Here’s what we’ll explore together:

• Why the world’s definition of peace will always leave you empty

• How Jesus’ peace shows up even when the chaos doesn’t stop

• The difference between striving for peace and receiving it as a gift

• Six characteristics of the peace that steadies a grieving heart

Peace doesn’t erase grief—but it does carry you when the weight feels too heavy to bear alone. Press play and let this message sit with you.

When the world is loud and confusing, even the strongest believer can struggle to know what’s real and what’s not. But when you’re grieving your child, that battle becomes even harder. Your mind and heart are already tender, your emotions raw, and every headline, opinion, or social media post can feel like another weight on top of your grief.

That’s why you need a filter—a faith-based way to sort through the noise and discern what’s true, what’s false, and what you can safely let go.

In this first episode of a 3-part series, Teresa shares how to build a simple FAITH filter to protect your heart and mind after child loss. You’ll learn how to:

• Guard your heart when the world’s voices feel louder than God’s

• Recognize what you’re taking in without even realizing it

• Filter what you read, what you hear from others, and what you start to believe about God, your child, and your future

• Apply a practical acronym (FAITH) to test every thought and message you absorb

Friend, discerning truth from lies is hard enough when life is going smoothly. In grief, it can feel nearly impossible. But you don’t have to do it alone—and God has given us a way forward.

👉 Listen now to learn how to start building your faith filter today.
