Lots of Loss

🎙️ Episode: “Lots of Loss” – Wrestling with Grief, Faith, and a Good God

Welcome back to another episode of the LOL, God Podcast. This one’s different. It’s not

light, it’s not easy—but it’s real.

This episode was never supposed to be now. I had “Loss” episode planned for later. Much later. But after devastating floods in Texas this month that claimed the lives of so

many—including 37 children—I found myself asking questions

Why, God? Why them? Why now? Where are You?

From the tragic loss of loved ones in my own life, to my husband losing his father at

age 8, to my conversation with a mother who lost her only daughter—this episode

is an honest wrestle with the reality of suffering and the mystery of God’s sovereignty.

I’ll take you through:

• My gut reaction to the July 4th Texas Hill Country floods
• A raw moment where I had no words—just tears and a reach for God
• Reading Genesis 3 with new eyes: how the “crafty serpent” still gets in our ears
• An unforgettable conversation with Lisa, the mom of my childhood friend Lindsay, and how she sees God’s glory in the unthinkable
• Why I’ve always resisted quoting Romans 8:28—and why I might finally be ready
• My personal fears, questions, anger... and the surprising peace I’m starting to glimpse

This isn’t a “pretty” episode, but I pray it’s a meaningful one—especially for anyone

walking through pain or loss. If your soul is not well right now, know you’re

not alone. And know God sees you.
