The Emmaus Road: Finding Jesus in Grief and Transformation

This week we heard from Dee Kaylock, who shared her powerful personal journey through profound grief and loss, including the experience of losing nine family members. She spoke about finding healing through God’s kindness and how this led her to establish the Threshold Collective, a ministry that helps people and their families navigate the spiritual journey of dying. Drawing on the biblical story of the Road to Emmaus from Luke 24, Dee explored how Jesus meets us in our moments of doubt, disappointment, and sorrow, even when we do not recognise Him. She emphasised the significance of inviting Jesus into our pain, the transformative power of encountering Him in shared fellowship and spiritual awakening, and how such encounters compel us towards generosity and sharing our faith. The message encouraged listeners to discern whether they are ‘drawn’ or ‘driven’ in their spiritual walk and to allow challenging life experiences to become ‘monuments’ of God’s presence, transforming pain into purpose.
