Hebrews 6:19

"We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul."

I have been asked how I can proclaim God’s faith

I have been asked how I can proclaim God’s faithfulness after experiencing the loss of a child. I ask, “How can I not?”

"So often in our world we think of God’s faithfulness as Him being faithful to our wants and desires. We say He was faithful to provide the right job, the right husband, the right house, etc. When we think of God’s faithfulness as Him doing the “right things” for us, we can get stuck at the faith-barrier.

God’s faithfulness has less to do with Him giving me what I want and more about me receiving His mercy every day. God’s faithfulness is Him being faithful to restore my joy and hope even after burying my son. God’s faithfulness is Him guiding me through my grief. Comforting me when I’m sad. Loving me when I question Him. That is God’s faithfulness to me. God is faithful to carry me through the deep waters of despair and lead me to the shore of hope."

Snippets from books we recommend:
"To lament is a bold decision to linger on the difficulties you face. So be brave. Slow down. Seek to understand the brokenness you feel, and express it to God." - Clint Watkins, Just Be Honest, p. 55, ICYMI - Clint was also a podcast guest on Episode 5

Episode 42 is here and we’re talking about how to navigate baby showers, birthday parties, and other social events that can feel especially painful as Hope Moms.

We don’t all navigate these moments the same way, and that’s okay. But choosing to communicate—even briefly—can strengthen relationships and lessen anxiety. Vulnerability may feel risky, but it often leads to deeper connection.

Join us as we share personal stories and practical wisdom for navigating the often uncomfortable and unexpected situations that arise after the loss of a baby.

"Episode 42: How Do You Respond? A grieving mother's guide to baby showers, awkward questions and unsolicited advice" is available everywhere you listen to podcasts.

What Does It Mean That "All Things Work Together for Good"?

Romans 8:28 is one of those verses we cling to in our suffering:
“And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to His purpose.”

But let’s be honest—there are days when this verse feels hard to believe.

What does “all things” really mean?
What kind of good could possibly come from the heartbreak we carry?

We know we’re hurting.
We know we don’t have the answers.
But we also know this: God is not wasting our pain.

Your grief is not unseen.
Your story is not forgotten.
And your pain is not the end.
