About this listen

 In this episode of Shalomies, Yana and Elizabeth sit down with Kristel Acevedo to talk about finding Shalom in wilderness seasons. We explore how God meets us in hard and uncertain places, the importance of honest lament, and the grounding practices that help us stay rooted when life feels overwhelming. Through Scripture and personal story, we reflect on how the wilderness can become a place of formation, presence, and unexpected peace.

Key Scriptures:
  • Psalm 13:1-6
