Grief is something every preacher encounters—not only in the lives of the people we serve, but eventually in our own lives as well. How can we better walk alongside those who are grieving? And what happens when the preacher becomes the one who needs comfort? Robert is joined by longtime gospel preacher and publisher Paul Sain for a personal conversation about grief. Drawing from his own experiences of walking alongside his wife, LaDon, through Alzheimer’s disease and ultimately through the pain of losing her, Paul shares lessons he has learned about sorrow, caregiving, encouragement, and the importance of simply being present for people who hurt. This conversation offers encouragement for preachers who regularly minister to grieving families while also reminding us that ministers are not immune to grief themselves. Sometimes the person who spends so much time comforting others must learn how to receive comfort, too.

Today, Andrew takes a backseat to let others speak. While you may be hearing his voice, a lot of what you will hear is not his words, but the words of mothers who have suffered from Post-Partum Depression. Listen as these sisters in Christ speak about their struggles and offer advice to others.

What are the things every father wants his daughters to know? In this episode of Authentically Adam, Wayne shares ten lessons he hopes his girls will carry with them throughout their lives. From recognizing that they are blessings from God and refusing to let fear or criticism hold them back, to choosing friends wisely, staying close as sisters, and learning the power of forgiveness, these are lessons that reach far beyond childhood. Above all, this episode is a father’s reminder that success and happiness are never the ultimate goal. The greatest hope a Christian father can have for his daughters is that they remain faithful to God—and that one day, the entire family will be together in heaven. An episode for fathers, daughters, and anyone who understands just how special that relationship can be.
