How to Cope with Loss by Grieving with God and Trusting Him in the Process w/ Tyler Cooper

Sam Landa and Tyler Cooper Season 4 Episode 64

Send Me Questions on Attachment

The process of grieving looks different for everyone. It does not always look the way we want it to look, nor does it always follow the stages in the exact order in which it is presented. I think we can all agree that there are different types of suffering that bring on different levels of pain, and there is no greater pain a parent can experience than the loss of a child.  And with that pain, comes the experience of grieving which brings up the question for us as believers, do we grieve differently than non-believers do? How can we trust God through the grieving process? 
 
 On today's episode, Tyler and I discuss why this topic is so important to Christians who have experienced loss, but especially for parents who have lost a child
 
I also discuss the following topics: 

  • How Tyler and his parents came to faith in Jesus Christ
  • What parents can teach us about Who God is
  • Most of Christian life is "caught not taught" by what we see in our parents
  • Experiencing the loss of a child
  • How rare talking about miscarriages is
  • Experiencing grief by going from denial to anger
  • Negative messages that enter our minds and hearts during loss
  • The need for Christian community
  • The ministry of presence
  • Was coping with the first loss worse than the second?
  • God is sovereign over all
  • Believing "It's my fault" and "Is God punishing me?" 
  • Lastly,
