Episode Details

Losing a child is every parent's worst nightmare. Wendy, a faithful follower of Jesus, never imagined it would happen to her, and yet it did. Why would God allow it? Wasn't He their protector? Didn't He know the good that her son could've done in the world? 

Wendy opens up about the anger, doubt, and feelings of betrayal that followed, the moment she chose to worship in the dirt where her son took his last breath, and how God met her there in the midst of unbearable pain. Her story offers hope for anyone questioning God’s goodness after loss.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• The early days of grief and her response to God
• How Wendy’s view of God was transformed through the pain
• The role of worship and honesty in healing
• How to walk with others through deep loss

If you or someone you love has experienced profound loss, this conversation will remind you that God can handle our hardest questions—and that hope can still rise from heartbreak.
