Lament and Hope with Caitlin Nelson

JUN 17, 202638 MIN

Description

What do you do when life falls apart and the God you love feels painfully silent? In Episode 3 of People of Springwood, Caitlin – a former SDA pastor and now mum of three – shares how Jesus has met her in seasons of heartbreak, trauma and chronic illness. After an anointing service at Springwood and a traumatic experience overseas, she found herself driven deeper into Scripture, especially the book of Lamentations. Together we talk about: Moving from formal pastoral ministry into ministry at home and online Walking with Jesus through trauma, loss and unanswered questions How Lamentations gives language for grief, honesty and hope Why storytelling has become a powerful way for Caitlin to share the gospel How God is using her Instagram and upcoming book to create safe spaces for others to share their own stories of pain If you’re carrying grief, disappointment or quiet heartbreak, this conversation is for you. Our prayer is that you’ll discover that your tears are seen, your story matters, and Jesus is closer than you think. Listen in, follow the show for more stories from People of Springwood, and consider sharing this episode with someone walking through a hard season.
