EP. 130 | Grace Whitnah [Hope for a Weary World]

As we move into the Christmas season, there is SO MUCH JOY to be found. But for those who simply cannot escape what’s difficult or broken or painful or devastating, there’s also a place at this table for you. Today at The Messy Table, Amy Groeschel and Jenn Jewell are chatting with Grace Whitnah—a wife and mother of five who’s lived through a parent’s worst nightmare… twice. A vibrant teenage son who, suddenly and unexpectedly, took his own life. Then, years later, another wave of tragedy that came crashing in. And yet, Grace and her husband, Reed, are still clinging to their Savior. Together they offer hope to the weary by leading a While We’re Waiting support group for bereaved parents. Grace explained… “I can either wallow in the pain of what’s happened, or I can think about how I can honor my boys and glorify God.”  Grace Whitnah If you’ve known the gut-wrenching sting of loss, you’re not alone. If the holidays are hard for you, you’re in good company. And if you’ve ached for a world without sorrow, pull up a chair. We’re honored to have you at The Messy Table.
