In this episode, Jennie sits down with Katy Herman In this episode, Jennie sits down with Katy Herman, mother, infant loss advocate, and founder of the Born Sleeping Foundation. Katy tenderly shares the story of her son Wesley, who was stillborn in April 2021, and the ways she can now see God’s gentle presence woven throughout the days before, during, and after his birth. Katy also shares how her time with Wesley inspired her family to begin providing CuddleCots to hospitals, giving grieving families the precious gift of more time with their babies. She now also helps equip labor and delivery nurses to care compassionately for families experiencing loss, reminding us that parents will always remember how they were cared for. Together, Jennie and Katy talk honestly about mothering a baby who is no longer here, making room to speak their names, and discovering that grief and beauty can exist together. Katy shares how she came to know the Lord as gentle, present, and faithful, and how surrender has helped her continue walking forward in hope.

I have always loved the Psalms, but I think I’ve c I have always loved the Psalms, but I think I’ve come to love them even more because of grief. There are so many places in the Psalms where we find people talking to God from right in the middle of what they are experiencing. They ask hard questions. They tell Him when they are afraid and when they feel forgotten. They remember what He has done before and remind themselves of what is true about Him. They praise Him, they wait for Him, they cry out to Him, and sometimes they simply tell Him how much they hurt. So today, I wanted to give you a little list of Psalms to keep somewhere. You don’t need to read all of them or work your way through the list. Maybe just notice the one that feels closest to where you are today and start there.
