  • Grief, Faith, and Questioning God: What the Bible Really Says

    Grief, Faith, and Questioning God: What the Bible Really Says
    Apr 29 2025
    Why It’s Okay to Question God: What the Bible Says About Grief and FaithEpisode Description / Show Notes:In this vulnerable episode of Let's Talk About Why, I’m stepping away from our scheduled conversation to share something deeply personal.After experiencing several major losses over the past two years, I’ve found myself wrestling with deep grief and big questions.Today, we’re talking about why questioning God in seasons of grief is not a sign of weak faith, but an invitation into deeper relationship.Together, we’ll look at Scripture and see how Job, David, and even Jesus asked hard, honest questions, and how God met them with compassion, not condemnation.If you’re grieving, struggling, or sitting in a season of unanswered prayers, I pray this episode reminds you:You are not alone.Your faith is not weak.And God is closer than you think, ven when the questions feel bigger than the answers.Scriptures referenced:Job 3:11; Job 19:7Psalm 13:1–2Matthew 27:46Psalm 34:18. . . . . .

  • What the Bible Says About Immigrants and Refugees—and Why It Matters

    What the Bible Says About Immigrants and Refugees—and Why It Matters
    Apr 15 2025


    In this solo episode, Tara takes a compassionate and honest look at what the Bible says about immigrants, refugees, and the Church’s response. Without diving into policy or politics, this conversation focuses on people and the heart of Christ toward the vulnerable and displaced.

    You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective, a challenge to align your heart with Scripture, and a renewed understanding of what it means to love your neighbor in a culture of division.


    This is a call to see like Jesus sees, to love like He loves, and to live a gospel that welcomes the stranger.

    🔑 In This Episode, We Explore:

    • Why Jesus being a refugee matters for how we see displaced people
    • A rapid-fire look at biblical stories of immigrants, exiles, and outsiders
    • The Samaritan as a model for gospel-centered compassion
    • How Christian nationalism distorts biblical love
    • Encouragement for those who want to do something but don’t know where to start


    📖 Scripture References:

    • Matthew 2:13–15 (Jesus as a refugee)
    • Deuteronomy 10:19 (love for the foreigner)
    • Luke 10:25–37 (The Good Samaritan)
    • Hebrews 13:2 (hospitality to strangers)
