Episode 4 - Natasha Smith
When we find ourselves in the dark after loss, big questions often follow: Where is God now? Why can’t I see Him here? Why can’t we sense His presence? How can I trust that God is good? Why did this happen?
The deep theological wrestlings that often arise after the pain of grief can be jarring. But we need permission to ask the raw questions. We need a space to say them aloud. And we need a guide to help us find answers in the dark.
In this episode of the What We Find in the Dark Podcast, join host Aubrey Sampson and her guest, author and grief educator Natasha Smith, as they talk about what we are to do in the very fresh moments of grief, how to begin to recover from the pain of loss, and the ways we can listen to those who are reeling in the aftermath of their worst days.
If you or someone you love has recently experienced a deeply painful grief, this conversation will give you practical tools to navigate the early days of loss with hope and healing.
“Grieving people teach us that pain is present and how to make space and hold space for pain.”
