About this episode

This episode addresses the unique grief experienced by parents after child loss and the judgment they may face from others, emphasizing God's perspective on their child's life.

There's a particular kind of grief that comes with a particular kind of silence. It's the pause after someone asks how your child died — the moment you hesitate, or don't answer at all, because you can feel the way the room shifts. If you've ever carried the fear that someone is quietly judging your child, or judging you, because of the way they left this earth — this episode is for you. Today we say some things out loud that need to be said, and we root them in the truth of God's word. In this episode, you'll discover: 👉 What we get wrong when we talk about physical illness and mental illness 👉 What was really happening on the inside that the world, looking from the outside, could never see 👉 The truth about what God sees versus what the world sees 👉 What God knew about your child before they took a single breath No one else gets the final word on your child. God does. And what He says changes everything. 💛 Summer Access Pricing for Calming the Chaos is available now. If you've been thinking, " I can't keep living with this constant guilt, fear, and doubt," I created this course for you. II'll help you begin untangling the thoughts and emotions that so often keep grieving…
