Watch now:
Are you walking through grief this Holiday Season? With Thanksgiving and Christmas just around the corner, I want to ask you, “Have you lost a loved one?” Maybe it is a family member- your mom, your dad, or your sibling. Maybe it is your spouse or your child. Maybe it is a friend or a co-worker. I know loss is hard and I know around the Holidays, it is even harder.
So if you are walking through grief this Holiday season, this episode is for you. I am highlighting a book on the podcast called *Now That She’s Gone. Chelsea Ohlemiller wrote this book about the loss of her mother. It’s honest, raw and vulnerable and has so much truth in it. My favorite section is when she talks about her faith and some of the doubts and questions that came up, and how she wrestled with God through all of it. Friend, if this is you and you are struggling with that too, I cannot wait for you to hear the wisdom on this episode.
