S4 07: Clinging to God Through Grief and Loss With Dana St. John
How do we trust the Lord in the face of devastating loss? This week, I’ve invited my friend Dana St. John to share her experience of walking with the Lord through the unexpected loss of her husband at age 44. Through Dana’s grief, doubt, and wrestling with faith, God brought her into a deeper relationship with Him. She also shares how Christians can grieve well and prepare for loss. The Knowledge of the Holy by A.W. Tozer Trusting God Even When Life Hurts Jerry Bridges A Land of Sheltered Promise by Jane Kirkpatrick The Reading Promise, My Father and the Books We Shared by Alice Osma Gender has become a confusing and heated topic of conversation in our culture today, but the Christian worldview offers clarity, and a vision of gender that’s true, good, and beautiful. At the next Lighthouse Voices event on October 3, Dr. Abigail Favale will join us to talk about the Christian view of gender that’s rooted in the Word of God and examine how this view compares and clashes with secular views of gender. You can join us in-person at the Focus on the Family Bookstore in Holland, Michigan, or from home via livestream. Grab your spot today at colsoncenter.org/lighthousevoices.
