Listen Later

How do you hold onto faith—and even find healing—when grief feels overwhelming?

In this moving episode of Of Sound Mind and Spirit, Andrea Bear joins the hosts to share her poignant story of navigating the loss of her parents, spiritual struggles, and how seeking faith brought her unexpected peace.

If you’re facing your own grief or supporting someone who is, this conversation will help you see that healing is possible, you’re not alone, and faith can turn even the darkest moments into growth.

By listening, you'll discover:

·       How genuine faith can be shaped—and deepened—through the reality of sorrow.

·       The transformative power of forgiveness, including what it means to forgive yourself after loss.

·       Real ways to process grief within a supportive, faith-based community.

Listen now and uncover hope-filled steps to move forward when grief and faith intersect.

Andrea Bear believes that grief without faith, is a like flashlight without batteries. Her journey of losing both her parents to different illnesses has shown her that God is the constantlight in the darkness and Mary is the batteries. She is the author of the award-winning fiction Grieving Daughters' Club and the cohost of the Mourning Glory, a Catholic grief podcast.
