Estrangement brings a kind of grief that’s hard to explain—and even harder to carry. When your estranged child is still alive but no longer present in your life, or your prodigal is hard to reach, the loss can feel invisible, unresolved, and deeply lonely.

In episode 22, we’re talking about the heart work every estranged Christian mom eventually faces: grieving without losing your faith, learning how to pray through unanswered questions, and finding peace while you continue to trust in God with your prodigal or estranged child.

If you’ve been carrying guilt or shame, questioning yourself, or wondering how long this pain will last, this conversation will meet you gently right where you are.

You’ll learn:

• Why estrangement creates a unique kind of grief and why it matters
• What Scripture says about reconciliation
• Why healing your heart doesn’t mean giving up on reconciliation or your prodigal
• What it looks like to move forward while still loving your estranged child

If you’re longing to pray without heaviness, to breathe again, and to rediscover hope while walking through estrangement, this episode will remind you that your grief matters, your faith is not broken, and God is still near.

🎧 Listen now and take the first step toward healing your heart while continuing to trust God with what you cannot control.
