S4 E5 Threads of Grief with Lindy Wynne

Shownotes

Most people think of grief in terms of a single event, usually resulting from the loss of a loved one. But as we’ve learned here on the Mourning Glory Podcast, grief can result/stem from more than just the death of a loved one. Today, we are going to explore some of these other ways grief can affect us like the divorce of parents, infertility, chronic illness, developmental illness, mental illness - even aging. How can we come to a place of acceptance and allow God to pour in His supernatural grace and healing? Join Andrea and Jennifer as they discuss this and more with the host ofMama’s in Spirit Catholic Podcast and Ministry for Women, Lindy Wynne
