    Faith, Hope, & GriefShare with Steve Grissom

    It may be hard for you to feel optimistic about the future right now. If you’ve lost a spouse, child, family member, or friend, you’ve probably found there are not many people who understand the deep hurt you feel. This can be a confusing time when you feel isolated and have many questions about things you’ve never faced before.   Steve and Cheryl Grissom founded Church Initiative in 1993. In 1998, Church Initiative reached an important milestone by releasing the first edition of GriefShare, a video-based support group that comes alongside grieving individuals. Now in its third edition, GriefShare continues to grow and reach more individuals every year. Currently, over 20,000 churches are equipped with one or more Church Initiative ministry programs.   Join us today for a hope filled discussion with Steve Grissom! You’ll hear his journey and the hope that GriefShare brings to so many each day. Steve and Marshall, both veterans of GriefShare, share the hope that they have experienced as attendees and for Steve and his wife Shelly, GriefShare Group leaders.   To find out more or join a GriefShare group please visit their website: https://www.griefshare.org   Do you have a GriefShare experience to tell us about? We would love to read your story on a future episode of the show! Send your story to hopethrugrief@gmail.com and please share our show with anyone you know that is struggling with loss and grief. You can find us on the internet to continue the conversation!   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hopethrugrief Twitter: https://twitter.com/HTGPodcast Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/hopethrugrief Website: http://hopethrugrief.com.

    Reflections

    We all know that we will lose someone important and precious to us in our lifetime. It’s not an ‘if’ but a ‘when’. However, no one is expecting to lose a sibling early in life and the lifetime of unknowns that follow.   In today’s episode we welcome Bethany Adams who lost her younger brother Hudson in 2016 at the age of 19. No one is supposed to leave this world that young and there is no road map to help navigate the lasting impact of such grief. Don’t miss this conversation filled with memories and a ‘what matters most’.   To read Bethany’s blog post; ‘Reflections’, please visit our blog: http://hopethrugrief.com/reflections   We welcome your comments and questions! Send an email to hopethrugrief@gmail.com and please share our show with anyone you know that is struggling with loss and grief. You can find us on the internet to continue the conversation!   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hopethrugrief Twitter: https://twitter.com/HTGPodcast Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/hopethrugrief Website: http://hopethrugrief.com.

    Time, Travel, and Triggers

    The journey of grief, while different for everyone, is also common in some respects.  No one knows how grief will affect you and there will be very difficult days ahead.  Some days will be much worse than others and at different points something will come up that triggers a memory or experience that can take you right back to where you were early on. These triggers can come at you in many, many different ways. It could be a song, it could be a place, it could be a previous trip it could even be seeing someone in similar clothing. No matter the manner, the trigger can take you right back to a place you haven’t been to in weeks, or even years.   We welcome your comments and questions! Send an email to hopethrugrief@gmail.com and please share our show with anyone you know that is struggling with loss and grief. You can find us on the internet to continue the conversation!   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hopethrugrief Twitter: https://twitter.com/HTGPodcast Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/hopethrugrief Website: http://hopethrugrief.com.

    The Complex Issues of a Loss Like No Other – Suicide Part III

    The Suicide Prevention Lifeline number is 1-800-273-8255   Our ongoing conversation about suicide continues in this Part III episode as we continue to build on the conversations of Part I in Episode 9 and Part II in Episode 13. Of course as we taped this episode in late September 2020, we are still the uncertainty and isolation of the #COVID19 pandemic. As a suicide survivor and advocate Marshall shares stories of other survivor families who have so many questions and so few answers in the immediate aftermath. Don’t miss this very candid conversation about everything from what to include in the obituary to dealing with feelings of personal responsibility.     The only thing missing from our conversation is you. Are you a suicide survivor?  We welcome your comments, suggestions and would love to hear your story.  Send an email to hopethrugrief@gmail.com and please share our show with anyone you know that is struggling with loss and grief. You can find us on the internet to continue the conversation!   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hopethrugrief Twitter: https://twitter.com/HTGPodcast Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/hopethrugrief Website: http://hopethrugrief.com.
