Where do we find the room to fit the enormous emotion that is grief? In Christian culure, we have a reputation for throwing phrases around like "they're in a better place" but not acknowleding the unthinkably painful and often slow process of lamenting. Nearing the Christmas season - many of us are faced the reminder of loss. Pastor of Fresh Life Church Levi Lusko vulnerably shares the story of the tragic and unexpected death of his 2-year old daughter and how he found his footing again. What does lamenting look like without staying trapped in a dark place? How do we trust in God when we are completely shattered by greif, and met with millions of dark and confusing feelings? Levi thoughtfully shares how to walk with God through the grief and not try to skip to the good part. The peace that surpasses all understanding is real and tangible in Levi's life. Our hearts go out to everyone who is grieving whether a recent or past loss this holiday season. This conversation will encourage you to allow God to shape your perspective around grief and turn pain into power.
