Rise in Mourning
Rise in Mourning: Finding Jesus at the Threshing Floor welcomes you into weekly conversations about grief & providing support, advice, coping skills, parenting after loss, hope & healing.
After losing our youngest son, I found myself at my own “threshing floor” — a place of heartbreak and surrender where God began to rebuild me piece by piece. In the depths of grief, I realized how few spaces existed that truly held the complexities of loss through a lens of faith. That’s why I created Rise in Mourning — a podcast born from both pain and purpose...for God's purpose.
Here, we talk about grief and healing in all their real, unfiltered layers. We’ll walk through the wrestle of faith, the beauty of surrender, and the slow, sacred rise that only Jesus can bring. If you’ve ever wondered how to keep walking when the world falls apart…
you’re not alone.
There’s hope here.
There’s healing here.
And there’s Jesus — right here, at the threshing floor.
My hope is that every episode reminds you that even in sorrow, there is purpose… and through Him, beauty can rise from the ashes.
"Because even in mourning...we rise."
*New episodes air every Wednesday at 10am EST.

From Raw Grief to Rooted Faith: Reading My Journal After Losing My Son
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this deeply personal episode of Rise in Mourning, I read journal entries I wrote in the days and weeks after losing my son, Alek.
I only share a few — but they reveal my raw state of mind, the confusion, the heartbreak, and the desperate searching for God in the middle of unbearable grief.
Then we turn to the Book of Job — one of the Bible’s most powerful examples of suffering, faith, and spiritual endurance. I reflect on how my faith has matured since those early journal entries and how even then, in my deepest pain, I was still reaching for God.
If you are grieving, wrestling with God, questioning your faith, or trying to understand suffering through a biblical lens — I pray this episode makes you feel less alone.
Even in mourning, we rise.
