Estrangement: Turning Pain into Peace

Estrangement: Turning Pain into Peace Podcast is hosted by me, Becky Kolb. Estrangement is often called the silent epidemic because people bury their emotional pain deep inside. When someone that's supposed to love you doesn't, it hurts. It can suck the life out of you and affect every relationship personally and professionally. This show is for those in estranged relationships and offers insights and strategies to help you overcome your shredded self-esteem, guilt and shame and rebuild healthy relationships. And learn the process of forgiveness - the linchpin to long term peace and reduced pain. I’ve dealt with estrangement much of my own life, and I know the pain. And despite that, I rose on the wings of adversity and learned to live peacefully amid estrangement. I'll show you how you can too.

    14: Where is God in Estrangement

    As one who is estranged from someone you love, do you wonder where God is in the relationship? Does he see your pain? Does he hear your prayers? Do you wonder why he doesn’t seem to care or lend any support to your broken heart? I asked all those questions many times. I wondered if he even cared or if I should even bother him with my hurting heart since surely, he had bigger fish to fry than this. And in that search and years of brokenness, I discovered that he was there all along, ...

    11: The God of Hope Seeks out the Estranged and Rejected

    There’s always hope no matter what the situation. But that’s not easy to see or feel if you’ve been abandoned or rejected. It can seem so elusive at times and that’s why I love the scripture in the Bible that says God is always with us. If we go to the depths of the sea he is there. If we go to the far ends of the earth, he’s there too. He is the one you always count on. The one who promises that he will never leave you. Do you find that hard to believe? I did. I talk with people wh...
