Ep. 34 | How to Help a Friend Who Has Lost a Child


Listen Later

"When my wife and I lost our son, Zion, in 2023, we were devastated. In the months following his death, getting through the day felt like trying to scale a twelve-foot wall. As we tried to figure out this new normal of living with intense and overwhelming grief, it took an enormous amount of effort and mental energy to do the bare necessities each day.

But thankfully, in those dreadful days and months, God brought to us many other people who helped us scale the wall. Without the patient encouragement and loving involvement of friends and family, we would have struggled even more than we did. Though they couldn’t fix the problem or reduce the pain, they could give us a boost to lift our spirits and lighten our load." - Zach Sparkman
