Is it possible to experience hope in the midst of grief? What does it look like for God to redeem the pain you go through in your life and leadership? In this episode, you’ll hear a conversation that Holly has with our guest Ashely Opliger. Ashley shares her story of infant loss with candor, grace, dignity and such love for those experiencing similar circumstances.  You’ll hear about the moment she knew God called her to use her grief to fulfill his call on her life, how she walks with other women in their grief, and how people close to those hurting can be a support. Ashley also shares how her non-profit ministry grew, how they encourage and uplift their volunteers, and how they have been able to be so impactful on such a small budget. While infant loss and miscarriage is a hard subject to talk about, God shows up in this conversation in such a comforting and real way.  Ashley shares some powerful reminders for those of us who support others in grief. Her story of healing can bring hope for those walking this hard road. For the full show notes, visit estherlittlefield.com/episode178.
