Episode Summary:

  • Today we talk about the fact that no matter what we’re going through, God is always there, and He cares. My guest today knows pain and loss. She experienced miscarriage, the murder of her sister (a victim of domestic violence), the loss of two brothers within a short period of time, and the death of her 14-month old granddaughter to Trisomy 18. Yet, she still maintains her hope. In this episode, she shares how she finds hope in the midst of grief.

 

We’re told in scripture that we’ll go through various trials. In this blog post, Anne shares about trusting God: Leaning into God When the World Around You is Shaky
