About this episode
This episode explores the profound grief of losing a loved one and the promise of comfort through faith.
The loss of someone deeply loved awakens a profound anguish and grief within us. Even some time after a loved one has gone from us, we can unexpectedly find ourselves tearing up. In the course of his last evening with his close followers, Jesus told them he was going away and that they could not come with him (John 14:3). He knew what his going away would mean for them and likened their state to orphaned children - destitute and alone. However, he didn't offer glib platitudes about his going but promised them a Counselor - literally, a Comforter. Find out more in this podcast.
