After the tragic death of her 3-year-old son River in 2019, Amber Smith began a journey through "the valley of the shadow of death" that led her to experience the darkness of grief—and the light that Jesus brings, even in our greatest pain. This conversation explores grief, faith, and what it looks like to keep seeking God even in the valley.
