  • Taking Fear Out of Grief
    Nov 13 2024

    Not a fun or lighthearted topic and yet sometimes I think we need to talk about it more; grief! God created us to feel sorrow, it's normal and grief is the process we take to accept situations of loss. But fear tends to creep into the equation where it doesn't belong.

    Join me as we talk about removing fear from grief and letting our God of comfort bring us peace!

    Here are 9 things on my bucket list and that you might want to add to your list too!
