Helping Widows Trust God and Find Hope Again, While Mourning Major Loss - Lisa Appelo
Imagine being a mother of seven young children, and then suddenly losing your husband. This was the tragic reality for Lisa Appelo when her husband shockingly passed away after experiencing cardiac arrest in the middle of the night. She discusses the hard truths of daily grieving and trusting God through the most painful and difficult moments of her life. She works actively to help other young widows work through this level of grief, and shares this experience in her book, Life Can Be Good Again: Putting Your World Back Together Again After It All Falls Apart. Lisa talks about the different types of grieving, loss, and what it really looks like to have hope again in the Lord. We must focus on the Word of God and put our hope in the promises of the Lord.
