Episode 61: Fighting Grief's Lies with God's Truth with Brooke Schuelke, Kelly Ransdell, and Kristin Hernandez
About this episode
The episode discusses the lies grieving moms face and how to confront them with God's truth.
Grief has a way of leaving us especially vulnerable to lies of shame, lies about God's character, lies that minimize the magnitude of our loss, and lies that tell us we're a burden. In this episode, Brooke Schuelke, Kelly Ransdell, and Kristin Hernandez talk openly about the common lies many women face after the loss of a baby and how we can learn to discern truth from deception. Drawing from Scripture and personal experience, they explore why grief exposes us to accusations of blame and distorted views of God, and how the truth of God's Word equips us to confront those accusations with confidence. Together, they address specific lies such as: "This is my fault," "My body failed," "God is punishing me," "I should be over this by now," and "My grief is a burden to others" and share life-giving truth to counter each one. This conversation gently reminds grieving moms that their loss was not their fault and that God has not abandoned them.
