Overcoming Loss, Finding Joy in the Mourning

Overcoming loss by finding joy in the mourning

While it is tough for a woman to lose her husband, it can be even tougher for her to raise a child without the father by their side. Losing someone who meant everything to you is one of the most difficult experiences that you can go through. Sometimes it can be hard to feel all your emotions and come out from that experience healthy and happy. But finding your comfort and restoration in the Lord can help you go through it with a much better perspective. 

Join the conversation with a special guest Lisa Smith, as she shares her experience, journey to healing, and giving back to uplift others. Lisa is a strong and inspiring believer who points everyone to Jesus. She lost her husband “Robbie” in an accident when he was hit by a drunk driver, and she was left with two beautiful young twins. It has not been easy for Lisa, but she has lived her life authentically and openly. Tune in and be inspired!

About the Podcast

Faith with Friends
Christian Podcast for Women who want spiritual growth and deepen their walk with God.
Friends with Faith is all about progress not perfection. We are a circle of friends that desire to grow in our walk with Jesus. Here, we get together to think a little more about faith & love. Whether you’re a newcomer, or a lifelong Christian, you’ll hear thought provoking & stimulating conversation about all things faith: from growing your personal relationships, to your own spiritual growth and connection with God. We are walking out and working out our faith together in community. We share each others burdens, carrying them to the cross. We celebrate each other, building each other up for the good works God has prepared. If you struggle to be faithful in prayer and reading the Bible then we believe this is the podcast that will help you apply God's Word to everyday tasks and trials. We share what works for us and encourage you as we learn and grow together. We want to learn how to love God and others better. Welcome to our circle. Thanks for listening in!
