Ep 51: Sacred Refuge: Finding Unexpected Shelter in Your Crisis – Lynne Rienstra

Where do you run when crisis hits? When grief, fear, or loss shake your world, is there a safe place to land? In this deeply personal episode of A Widow’s Heart, host Pam Lundell welcomes author, speaker, and Samaritan’s Purse leader Lynne Rienstra to talk about her powerful new book, Sacred Refuge: Finding Unexpected Shelter in Your Crisis. Their conversation moves from childhood wounds to widowhood, from cancer to car crashes—but through it all, a deeper truth emerges there is a refuge, and His name is Jesus. Pam and Lynne reflect on stories of modern-day women and sacred sisters from Scripture—like Hagar, Eve, and the widow from 2 Kings—who found hope and provision in the middle of heartbreak. Whether you're walking through deep loss, trying to silence the lies, or simply wondering if God really sees you, this episode is a tender invitation to rest under His wings. You’re not alone. There is a safe place. And maybe this conversation is the reminder your heart’s been waiting for. Oh! And here's a link for the trip: Fall Foliage — Gateway World Tours
