In this tender conversation, I sit down with Allison Brost as she shares her journey of grief after the loss of her son, Solomon. Allison opens up about the pain of loss, the comfort of Scripture, and how writing became a healing outlet in her faith journey.
We talk honestly about lament, gratitude, and the way God meets us in the darkest places. Allison also shares practical encouragement for keeping prayer alive amidst the chaos of parenting, and how community has been vital in her healing process. This episode is both raw and full of hope, reminding us that joy is found not in circumstances, but in the presence of God who never leaves us.
We talk about:
✨ How God uses even hard things for beautiful purposes
✨ Writing as a healing practice in grief
✨ Why community is vital during loss and suffering
✨ Gratitude as a perspective-shifting practice
✨ Anchors of Scripture for seasons of sorrow
✨ The role of lament in faith and healing
✨ Finding joy in the presence of God
✨ Prayer as an ongoing conversation with God

What has helped you hold onto hope in a season of grief or loss?
Whether you’ve walked through grief yourself, are supporting someone who has, or simply want to grow in gratitude and joy, this episode will encourage your heart and remind you of God’s nearness.
