Julia Zwayne shares about her new book, a collection of poems and reflections shaped by seasons of brokenness and God’s comfort. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar hear how despair often became where the Lord met her most deeply, turning sorrow into hope. The guys reflect on the value of lament, a form of worship often overlooked in the church, as a means that draws believers closer to God. Julia explains how poetry helps her process pain and return to truth, admitting past tendencies to run toward darkness but finding confidence in Christ. One of her poems, “Blank Spaces,” captures life’s monotony and resonates with those who feel unseen. Together they affirm that even in despair God is near, His grace is sufficient, and He uses trials to deepen faith, equip His people, and ultimately bring glory to Himself.
