Join us for the final episode of our 3-part summer series called "Conversations of Hope with Ashley and Kristin." Ashley Opliger and Kristin Hernandez are both bereaved moms who desire to point other grieving moms to the hope they've found in Jesus.

This month's episode is a Q&A with Ashley and Kristin using listener-submitted questions.

In this episode, we discussed:

• How to navigate relationships after losing a baby
• Forgiving friends and family who have hurt us in our grief
• Why friendships may change after loss
• Victim mentality and identity
• Preparing our hearts for our baby's first Heaven day
• Ways to honor our baby on milestones
• Anticipatory grief
• Why it's sometimes harder to face the days leading up to a milestone than the day itself
• Memorial ideas and random acts of kindness
• How the Church can better support grieving families
• What to do when you're in a waiting season
• How do you know when you're ready to try again?
• What can you do to stop being mad at God?
