Show Notes

How do your children grieve the loss of the family that they no longer have? What do you notice about how each of your children are grieving? How about you? Have you grieved the loss that you've lived through?

That loss can take many forms that then become commingled with others' expectations for how you should behave in the face of blending. Yet, there's no family like your family! Your family is beautifully unique and treasured by God.

In today's episode, Dr. David Knapp shares how children navigate grief differently, and how spiritual leadership can guide us to lean into the hurt. Additionally, we discuss strategies fathers can implement in their homes to ease the loss.

David Highlights these key areas for Spiritual Leadership

  • Monitor Relationships
  • Don't Be A Fake!
  • Remain Consistent In Your Walk With God
  • Pray for Each Member In Your Family
  • Create Rituals and Traditions Quickly to Build New Memories

Your mission, should you choose to accept it is to listen to mission number five and create a smarter goal that relates to your family's wellbeing. Who is your family becoming? What's God's call for you together?
