We all experience pain, loss, disappointment, and unanswered questions. Yet many people believe they have to hide their emotions or simply “be strong.” The Bible teaches something different. It gives us the gift of lament—the freedom to bring our grief, confusion, and pain honestly before God.
In this episode, Tabby Ostrander shares how the biblical practice of lament helped her navigate the pain of trauma and begin the journey toward healing. Drawing from both Scripture and personal experience, she explains why lament is not a sign of weak faith, but an act of trust that invites God’s presence into our deepest wounds.
Whether you are carrying the weight of trauma, grief, or disappointment, this conversation offers hope, practical encouragement, and a reminder that healing often begins when we stop hiding our pain and bring it before God.
“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18
