In this conversation, Liesl Field, author and songwriter, delves into her personal journey of tragedy and loss, while discussing the concept of sharing Jesus when others are journeying through pain. Christians, in their efforts to support those experiencing pain, often have good intentions but sometimes unintentionally say or do things that are not helpful. How Your Pain Can Shine His Light or Not? gives key information to help believers share their faith.
The conversation explores the importance of empathy and being present for others in their pain, rather than offering trite answers or trying to fix their problems. Liesl emphasizes the power of listening and sitting with someone in their grief, allowing them to express their emotions without judgment. The conversation also highlights the need for self-awareness and honesty when ministering to others, and the impact of sharing one’s own story of pain and healing. The episode concludes with a recommendation to read Liesl’s book, ‘Silver Lining,’ which offers further insights and encouragement for those going through difficult times.
