While We're Waiting® - Hope After Child Loss

196 | Myths and Cliches of Grief (Part Two) with Austin DeArmond


Listen Later

"They are in a better place."
"Grief shows a lack of faith."
"Once you're done grieving, things will go back to normal."

If you've heard any of these unhelpful statements since the loss of your child, you're not alone.  In our western culture, I believe we have a tendency to minimize grief ... to gloss over it with glib platitudes.  Austin DeArmond joins me again today for a lively discussion about these three statements, along with seven more.   Listen in and be encouraged!
