UPDATED Grief, grace, guts and the Gospel | A reflection on Dad’s recent passing

UPDATED CONTENT Apologies to those of you who listened the original version of this podcast. The production issues were entirely my fault and they’ve since been rectified and a little more fresh content has been added. Thank you for your understanding and your patience.---- Hi friends,Apologies in advance for the tears at various points throughout this episode, but I couldn't let the opportunity to shine a light on my dear dad pass me by during this first episode of the season. A couple of weeks ago, we lost our Dad and the better half of our podcast. I'm heartbroken and the grief sits like a lead balloon on my chest, but I rest much easier in the knowledge that dad is with Jesus. There's literally no better place to be.If you're currently experiencing grief or possibly even anticipatory grief, please don't hesitate to reach out to me via Instagram (@withstandpod) or via email ([email protected])During Dad's last 24 hours, I was fortunate enough to play him a couple of sermons from Charles Stanley. Here are the links:The Source of Peace - Charles Stanley: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1WiM3Z7hPM&t=831s (we watched this while my brother and I fed Dad his lunch)Our Peace: God's Will - Charles Stanley: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E02hPeWZLTo&t=582s (I watched and Dad listened as I fed Dad his dinner, which would be his final meal on earth).God bless you, guys.
