Terra McDaniel talks about lament as an antidote to despair and hopelessness. She says, “Lament doesn’t mean getting stuck in grief…[instead] it is the freedom to express all kinds of pain related to all kinds of losses and to invite the presence of God into them.”

In this episode, I sit with Terra McDaniel, Author of Hopeful Lament: Tending Our Grief Through Spiritual Practices to chat about Sitting with Hopeful Lament in Grief.

Terra is a spiritual director and teacher who loves making space for people of all ages to tune into the holy and their own souls. She believes that being created in God’s image is the truest thing about each of us. She received an MDiv with a concentration in spiritual formation from Portland Seminary. Terra lives in Austin, Texas with her husband and two rescue dogs. She’s very thankful her daughter, son-in-law, and twin grandchildren live close by.
