Have you or a friend ever walked through a season of infertility and grief? Do you often wonder what to say when a friend is walking through loss of any kind?
Today my friend Julie Fowler is here to talk about her heartbreaking (but hopeful) story of motherhood and how God used her story to help people navigate loss. Julie has faced miscarriage, adoptions that fell through at the last minute, and baby twins she only held for four short hours. She truly has walked this long road and knows all of the feelings of grief and uncertainty around waiting for a baby. This valley produced a beautiful study of walking through infertility in community and connecting with God in the deepest, darkest places. We cover so much in our conversation including…
-
How to talk to a friend in a season of infertility and loss- what not to say. - How husbands and wives can support each other instead of turning on one another.
- Sharing your feelings with the Lord and then speaking truth over yourself.
- Wrestling with deep spiritual questions when your prayers are not being answered.
- Making a support group uplifting instead of only heavy while still leaving room to process.
