When Storms Come | How To Acknowledge And Move Through Grief, Sorrow, and Hard Times.

Today was a unique episode set up.  We decided that there was a resource that covered a topic so well that we just could not direct you right to that video.  Our goal was to try to reach those of you that are stuck in the middle of grief, sorrow, or trauma.  In doing that we wanted to have it discussed through the lens of the spirtual dimension of ourselves.  Sometimes, have cut so deep that we certainly need to look at something bigger than ourselves to help us through.  Though, we acknowledge it's the very thing that we blame or maybe question.  Please take the time to visit the link below. It should direct you to a youTube site of which Dave Bartlet from Orchard Hill Church speaks at an annual gathering called, The Gathering. I (Amy) happened to be in the audience that day.  I believe the Dave's message transends the fact it's on video and will speak directly to your heart. That day, being there, in the midst of this time period and how it shook our community was something that changed my heart forever.  I hold this video dear. This is a video I will direct people to often, because this beautiful man, in the midst of his sorrow, was able to share a message essential for us to get through the toughest of times.
