In this episode, One Step at a Time Through Our Grief, Laura shares how God used the beauty of His creation — mountains, rivers, the ocean, and even the warmth of the sun — to remind her that He is always present, even in the hardest moments of deep loss.

As grieving parents, we often wonder how we’ll ever make it through another day. But through her gentle storytelling, Laura helps us see that our healing truly happens one step at a time through our grief. Some days the path is steep and exhausting, other days it’s smoother and more peaceful, yet every step is part of the journey forward.

In this episode, you’ll hear Laura share a couple of stories from the Hope Mobile travels that reflect our grief journey, as well as the song “Keep Walking,” written and sung by Laura, offering hope and comfort to every grieving heart.

It’s okay to rest, to take breaks, and to simply breathe when the climb feels too hard. But no matter where you are, God is walking beside you, holding you steady. If you’re feeling weary today, may One Step at a Time Through Our Grief remind you that hope is still alive inside of you, and that you are not walking this path alone. God’s faithfulness will meet you in every step you take.
