Grieving Miscarriage – Infant, Child Loss
The video provides a broad understanding of the sacred loss of an infant or child. Nikki Turner shares her gripping, personal story about Nehemiah, her stillborn son.
For parents who have experienced the death of a child, this video offers a Christian perspective for coping with such a tragic loss. Whether death occurs a few weeks after conception or later in adulthood, God fully understands the pain that accompanies the death of a child. His Son, Jesus, died too.
Grieving Suicide – Understanding the Impact of Suicide
Death by suicide creates vastly different emotional reactions from those encountered when death occurs at the end of natural life. Two elements measure the impact of death on a survivor. These are suddenness and the intensity of the emotional connections to the deceased. Violent suicides intensify the emotional impact on survivors, leaving confusion and disquiet for the griever.
Paul Jones, a parent of a suicidal youth, shares his personal experience.
In addition, the video provides an original take on death by delving into God's grieving process. Understanding the grieving process can help individuals find contentment after a suicide.
Shadowlands: Grief Recovery
Shadowlands is a six-session program (in-person or online) that provides a Christian perspective on the journey from loss to a restored sense of peace and joy.
In the context of a safe, confidential small group, you will learn about God’s model of grieving, coping skills for difficult emotions, and insights into the effects of a loss on all areas of life. Loss is experienced in many forms: Death of a loved one, end of a relationship, job loss, life-changing illnesses, adoption choice, abortion or suicide.
Shadowlands has been used for over twenty-five years at a large church in Plano, TX as the centerpiece of its in-house grief recovery ministry. Through Brave Penny, national and global availability to Shadowlands has been expanded through periodic Zoom-based programs led by Sharon Fox, and by licensing of the Shadowlands program to churches and organizations throughout North America.
