Behind The Mike Podcast

Matt Accurso and Pastor Matt McCloghry | Can There Be Hope in Grief?


Listen Later

Life is a gift from God.  Most of us will experience or have already experienced, the death of someone very close to us.  It is in those moments that we are faced with the reality of our own mortality. Unless Jesus returns in our lifetime, we too will leave this world.  The decisions we’ve made in this life will determine our eternity—actually, it comes down to just one decision.  Am I living for myself, or am I living for Jesus?

Matt Accurso experienced what no husband or father wants to experience.  Matt lost his wife, Lauren, during the birth of his first son, baby Matthew.  Then, just 17 days later, he would also lose his son.

In those moments, Matt’s foundation was shaken to the core.  Up to that time, Matt had trusted in God.  He trusted that God cared for him and his family. He trusted that God held them in His hand, and he trusted that God’s ways were higher than his own ways.  Still, he was at a crossroads.  Would he continue to trust God and believe that He still loved him, or would he turn away?

Today, I’m joined by Matt Accurso and his pastor, Matt McCloghry.  Even through the deep loss in Matt’s story, you will find that this is still very much a Conversation of Hope.
