37 | Finding Community and Renewing My Faith after My Son's Full-Term Stillbirth | Heather Cohen

Join us for a conversation with bereaved mother Heather Cohen about how she found community and renewed her faith after the full-term stillbirth of her son, Levi.

Just days away from her scheduled c-section, Heather was shocked to discover that her son no longer had a heartbeat. Devastated and grieving, she turned to Bridget's Cradles and began attending our online support groups and volunteering to comfort others through the ministry. Hear Heather's story of finding hope in the midst of her heartache and how you, too, can find hope after the loss of your baby.

In this episode, we discussed:

  • Having questions about the cause of your baby's death
  • Struggling with shame and regret over decisions you made or didn't make during your pregnancy
  • God's sovereignty and why our theology of who He is matters
  • The importance of finding community in grief
  • Why counseling is helpful and why you shouldn't be ashamed to seek help
  • More about Bridget's Cradles Hope Online support groups from Heather's perspective of attending them
  • Circumstances change but God never does
  • The hope of what is to come in Scripture
  • Honoring our babies by serving others to bring God glory
  • Heather's volunteer experience with Bridget's Cradles
