When Allison Byxbe's oldest son was diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder, her vibrant faith went silent. What followed was a full decade of processing grief, letting go of the life she'd imagined, and learning to embrace a new reality. In her darkest season, she discovered that journaling wasn't just a way to record her pain, it became a lifeline back to God's presence. In this conversation, Allison shares how the simple act of putting pen to paper softened her heart, helped her to make sense of overwhelming experiences, and allowed her to hear the Holy Spirit's whisper. She explores how Scripture's metaphors, like new wineskins, gentle whispers, and living water, became bridges to understanding her journey. Whether you're walking through a storm or simply seeking deeper connection with God, Allison's story and practical guidance will inspire you to discover the transformative power of journaling as a spiritual practice.   WEBLINKS Allison Byxbe’s Website Allison Byxbe on Instagram Journalling as a Spiritual Practice
