FOUND in Focus | Ep.63 | Jesus Wept: Finding God in the Middle of Grief | John 11:35

What if God meets you in your grief—not just after it? In this FOUND in Focus devotional, Lorie Hartshorn reflects on one of the shortest yet most powerful verses in Scripture: John 11:35 — “Jesus wept.” Inspired by her conversation with Siobhan Koch, this devotional reminds us that God’s presence is not reserved for moments of breakthrough, healing, or answered prayer. He is also present in the sorrow, the waiting, and the questions we carry when life doesn't make sense. After walking through years of infertility, heartbreaking loss, and deep disappointment, Siobhan discovered that faith isn't about having all the answers—it's about being held by the One who understands our pain. Jesus knew He would raise Lazarus, yet He still stopped to weep. In doing so, He revealed a God who is not distant from our suffering but enters into it with us. This devotional is an invitation to release the pressure to be strong, to bring your grief honestly before God, and to trust that His presence is enough even when circumstances remain unchanged. If you're carrying loss, unanswered prayers, or a season where faith feels fragile, be reminded today: you are not alone. The God who weeps is the God who stays. 👉 Watch Siobhan’s full episode: https://youtu.be/jVOf1iz7H0o [https://youtu.be/jVOf1iz7H0o] 👉 Watch the devotional on Youtube: https://youtu.be/Q5EQqWTK73s [https://youtu.be/Q5EQqWTK73s] 🔗 Connect with Lorie Hartshorn: Website:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://loriehartshorn.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://loriehartshorn.com] Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/loriehartshorn/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/loriehartshorn/] Facebook:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/lorieshart⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/lorieshart] 📢 New episodes every week!

After walking through 12 years of infertility and the devastating loss of a long-awaited pregnancy, Siobhan found herself wrestling with disappointment, grief, and faith in ways she never expected. Yet it was in those painful seasons that she discovered a deeper truth: God's presence is not dependent on our circumstances. This episode is a tender reminder that even when answers don't come, God remains near. In this episode, you'll discover: - Navigating infertility, pregnancy loss, and seasons of deep grief - Letting go of performance-based faith and learning to trust God's presence - Wrestling honestly with disappointment and unanswered prayers - What it means to be held by God in life's hardest moments - Creating space for vulnerability, lament, and authentic faith Siobhan's story offers hope for anyone carrying heartbreak, waiting for breakthrough, or wondering where God is in the middle of their pain.

FOUND in Focus | Ep.62 | You Don’t Have to Earn Your Worth | Ephesians 2:10

What if your identity was never meant to be earned? In this FOUND in Focus devotional, Lorie Hartshorn reflects on the truth of Ephesians 2:10 and the powerful reminder that you are God's handiwork—created with purpose, value, and intention. Inspired by her conversation with Daniel Im, this devotional explores what it means to live from your God-given identity rather than striving to prove your worth. So many of us tie our value to what we accomplish, how productive we are, or whether we feel successful. We spend our lives trying to earn significance, believing that if we achieve enough, we'll finally feel secure. But Scripture tells a different story. Before you ever did anything for God, He created you with purpose and prepared good works for you to walk in. You are not defined by your performance, your accomplishments, or the expectations of others. You are God's workmanship—uniquely designed, deeply loved, and called according to His purpose. When you understand who you are in Christ, you can stop striving for identity and start living from it. If you've been feeling pressure to prove yourself or wondering whether your life has purpose, be reminded today: God has already declared your value, and He has prepared a path for you to walk in. 👉 Watch Daniel’s full episode: https://youtu.be/tFY69uwppNo [https://youtu.be/tFY69uwppNo] 👉 Watch the devotional on Youtube: https://youtu.be/kOBFQXtnDY8 [https://youtu.be/kOBFQXtnDY8] 🔗 Connect with Lorie Hartshorn: Website:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://loriehartshorn.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://loriehartshorn.com] Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/loriehartshorn/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/loriehartshorn/] Facebook:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/lorieshart⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/lorieshart] 📢 New episodes every week!

Ep. 62 | You Are Not What You Do with Daniel Im | Purpose & Breaking Free from Performance

Are you defining yourself by what you do? In this thought-provoking and freeing conversation, Daniel Im joins Lorie to unpack the subtle identity lies that shape how we see ourselves—and how the Gospel offers a better way. Drawing from his book You Are What You Do, Daniel explores how culture, achievement, and performance often become the foundation of our worth without us even realizing it. In a world that constantly tells us to do more, achieve more, and be more, he offers a powerful reminder that our identity is not something we earn—it is something we receive from Christ. This conversation will challenge the way you think about success, purpose, and what it means to live from a secure identity. In this episode, you'll discover: - Why tying your worth to your work leads to striving and exhaustion - How culture quietly shapes our understanding of identity - The pressure to perform, achieve, and prove ourselves - Breaking free from comparison and performance-based living - How to embrace a Gospel-centred identity rooted in Christ Daniel's insights will help you recognize the identity traps that keep so many people stuck and point you toward the freedom that comes from knowing who you are in Jesus. If you've ever felt like your value rises and falls with your accomplishments, this episode will bring clarity, encouragement, and a renewed perspective on what truly defines you. 📺 Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/tFY69uwppNo [https://youtu.be/tFY69uwppNo] 🔗 Connect with Daniel Im: Website: danielim.com [danielim.com ] Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/danielsangi/ [https://www.instagram.com/danielsangi/ ] Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Daniel.Im.Author/ [https://www.facebook.com/Daniel.Im.Author/ ] X (Twitter): https://x.com/danielsangi [https://x.com/danielsangi ] 🔗 Connect with Lorie Hartshorn: Website:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://loriehartshorn.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://loriehartshorn.com] Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/loriehartshorn/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/loriehartshorn/] Facebook:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/lorieshart⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/lorieshart] 📢 New episodes every week!
