About this listen

 April Yamasaki is a pastor, author, magazine editor, spiritual formation mentor, and resident author with a liturgical worship community in Abbotsford, British Columbia. April's a busy woman but she's also "grounded in sacred pauses, soul care, and living with faith and hope."

April will tell you that decades ago, when she unexpectedly came into pastoral ministry, she thought it'd be a temporary assignment. But the Lord had other plans. During her time as a pastor, April walked with many in their grief journey. When her own grief journey came, everything changed.

Join us for this episode about grief, soul care, hope, gratitude, and post-traumatic growth. April shares openly and thoughtfully about the loss of her husband, the mystery of faith and time, and the ways writing can move you through the disorganization of grief. It's a conversation you don't want to miss.

April is the author of Sacred Pauses, Four Gifts, and several books of liturgical sermons. She is also a devotional contributor for the Women's Devotional Bible in the Message.
