Description
In this episode, Chap Bettis sits down with Tim Challies and pastor Travis Rymer for a candid Q&A that closes out The Disciple-Making Parent’s mini-series on suffering. Tim shares Scriptures and hymns that shaped his grief, how his family helped their daughters process loss, and why grief must never become our identity. You’ll also hear practical counsel on balancing honest lament with trust in God’s goodness, and on letting truth shape emotions rather than emotions shaping truth.<br /><br />Resources From This Podcast<br /><a href="https://www.thedisciplemakingparent.com/suffering-and-our-savior-tim-challies/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tim Challies: Suffering and Our Savior (#</a>1 in series)<br /><a href="https://www.thedisciplemakingparent.com/125-tim-challies-personal-accounts-of-gods-goodness-in-suffering/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tim Challies: Personal Accounts of God’s Goodness in Suffering</a> (#2 in series)<br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0J2hXjflmuw" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">On Jordan’s Stormy Banks</a>, performed by Indelible Grace<br /><a href="https://amzn.to/4sXvh8d" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Seasons of Sorrow</a>, by Tim Challies<br /><a href="https://www.challies.com/articles/a-manifesto-for-times-of-suffering/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">A Manifesto for Times of Suffering</a>- Tim’s “Grief Manifesto”<br /><a href="https://amzn.to/4vrr0LH" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dark Clouds, Deep Mercy</a>, by Mark Vroegop<br /><a href="https://www.thedisciplemakingparent.com/tim-challies-walking-through-deep-sorrow-and-loss/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tim Challies- Walking Through Deep Sorrow and Loss</a> (Prior podcast interview)
