Persevering: Grief As Told By Young People

Christian Perspectives On Grief

Listen on

Episode notes

Religion can hugely affect the way you process a death, and this week Katy, Izzy and Hannah share their Christian perspectives on loss at a young age. Conversation topics include the afterlife, visiting the grave, and tips for Christmas without your loved one. For some, a death may prompt them to question their faith, but it can also provide comfort both practically and spiritually.
