“I Will Praise Him in the Storm” (Hannah Sullivan) with Brad and Jill Sullivan, Hannah’s parents

 On this episode, Brad and Jill Sullivan join me to talk about their sweet daughter Hannah, and their grief journey since losing her to a glioblastoma brain tumor in February 2009 after a year long battle. Hannah loved Jesus, and her faith in Him enabled her to not only endure this battle, but to live each day with purpose to honor Him even as she underwent radiation therapy and surgery. Brad shares a very touching conversation he had with Hannah at one point that year as the two of them talked about why GOD allows us to suffer through storms in our lives, and the bold, unforgettable prayer she offered to Him prior to her diagnosis.  Learn how Jill and Brad dealt with the questions, anger and trauma in learning the tumor had returned with a vengeance after months of healing and recovery and an initially positive response to treatment. With grace and transparency, they talk about the impact grief made in their lives and their marriage. You will also hear about the impact Jesus had on their grief! After losing Hannah, GOD inspired them to co-found While We’re Waiting, a non-profit ministry for grieving parents offering Christ-centered retreats, both near their home in Hot Springs, Arkansas, as well as venues in several other states, at no cost to their guests. Since 2020, their ministry now includes a very successful podcast by the same name where bereaved parents share their own stories of loss and GOD’s faithfulness to restore hope, meaning, and purpose. Their story is sure to offer you, our listeners, a message of hope and encouragement in your own storm.
