Going into a new year without our child can feel horrible, knowing there is nothing we can do to stop it. Join Laura as she shares what that was like for her after the death of her daughter, Becca, along with sharing some words of encouragement for those who are struggling with feeling like they are leaving their child behind as we close out 2021.
Laura also prays over the listeners as they begin a new year in this “unwanted club” of child loss, and ends the episode by reading a poem she wrote a few years ago, reminding us all that someday, because of Jesus, it will all be made right.

Grieving Parents Sharing Hope (GPS Hope) is here to walk with parents through the darkness of child-loss, guiding them to a place of hope, light and purpose.
It is a safe place for anyone who has lost a child from this earth. There is no shame or judgment in where you are in this journey, including if you are struggling in your relationship with God or your faith has been completely shattered.

This podcast is a must if you have lost a child. It has helped my journey in so many ways I can’t explain. Thank you Jesus for these wonderful people.
Love Pam Green

Laura & Dave thank you so much! We were blessed by your visit to H.U.G.S. (Healing Under God’s Sovereignty), this Christmas season. You always seem to put my deepest thoughts and my trust in God into the words that you write, speak or sing. Thank you.
