Is grief a sign of weak faith—or a God-given response to the pain of a broken world?

This week on Sound Truth Interviews, Adam Miller welcomes Brittany Lee Allen, author of Free to Weep: Finding the Courage to Grieve and Embracing the God Who Heals. Brittany challenges common misconceptions about suffering and shares how Scripture reveals a God who is near to the brokenhearted.

Together, Adam and Brittany explore the place of lament in the Christian life, the compassion of Jesus, and why believers do not need to hide their sorrow or rush through their grief. This tender and hope-filled conversation reminds us that we are free to weep because our Savior wept first—and that God meets us with grace in the midst of our pain.
