Those of us who have lost a child can begin to dread the end-of-the-year holidays way before they arrive, especially the Christmas season.

Several years ago, as Laura struggled with this, she ended up putting together her own advent time with God. Today she talks about this, and how you can join her on a special advent journey, specifically for bereaved parents.

This podcast episode is sponsored by Peter and Yuniati Dinh, in memory of their 21-month-old daughter, Hanna Abigail. 

Links Mentioned in this episode:

See the webpage for the book Hope for the Future: An Advent Journey for Bereaved Parents, where you can get a PDF copy of the book for only $4.95. (Or you can order a paperback copy of the book from Amazon or your favorite book outlet.)

Find out more about The Grief Cruise and how to join Dave and Laura in 2025!
