In this episode, Julie shares her story of childhood trauma, emotional neglect, and grief—and how learning to lament became the pathway from sorrow to hope. Through Scripture and her personal journey, she reminds us that it’s okay to bring our pain before God and that healing often begins when we do.
We talk about:
How childhood experiences shape the way we relate to God and others
What emotional neglect looks like and how it impacts faith
Practical steps to face past pain, build hope, and break unhealthy patterns
How the church can support those who have experienced childhood wounds
Listener questions on trusting God when earthly love has failed and how to grieve without shame
Julie also shares about the inspiration behind her book, the hardest chapters to write, and what she hopes readers walk away with.
