  • Thanks for pointing back to God’s word

    I’m grateful that a friend told me about this podcast a few months ago. I’ve listened to several episodes (not in order, just skipping around to what seems helpful). The most recent episode of fighting lies with truth was really helpful. I actually stopped washing dishes and started writing down the scriptures they were mentioning. I felt like I wasn’t alone in my thoughts and questions about my son’s death, but then I had God’s word to remind me of His sovereignty and love.

  • Encouraging

    Finally, a support group that acknowledges the reality of losing a baby. If you have suffered the loss of a baby, you don’t have to feel alone. This podcast brings encouragement and the reality that there are many people that have suffered child loss. The host does a wonderful job, encouraging us and pointing us to the hope that we can find in Jesus Christ.

  • Thank you

    I found your podcast through Instagram. I just lost my baby through miscarriage in December, and I find myself caught in the middle of both grief and sorrow as we are expecting again. Thank you for creating a place where women and moms can be encouraged in their specific trials and know they are not alone.

  • Amazing

    This is exactly what I’ve needed as I grieve the loss of my son. The Lord has used this podcast (and the Hope Mommies community) to encourage me, remind me of His truth, and comfort my heart. Truly a blessing. I can’t say enough how thankful I am for Hope Mommies.

Episode 77: What Remains True God's Promises in the Aftermath of Miscarriage, Stillbirth, and Infant Loss with Kelly Ransdell and Jennie Parks
Q: Did you ever have a moment where you really were like, okay, God, it's going to be me and you now? Did you have a turning point like that or a breaking point?
Kelly describes a turning point on a night of personal wrestling with faith, where she chose to move from anger and confusion to a deeper willingness to trust God and engage with Him honestly, even when life didn't make sense.
Episode 46: Praying The Lord's Prayer Through Pregnancy After Loss with Ashlee Schmidt
Q: How does the study meet women in pregnancy after loss and point them to Christ?
It uses the Lord's Prayer as a framework to reorient fear into trust, emphasizes God's nearness, and helps readers lean into God's promises rather than chasing control or a perfect outcome.
Episode 49: Entrusting Our Emotions to Jesus: Grief, Bedrest, and Clinging to Christ through Uncertainty and Difficult Feelings with Courtney Reissig
Q: How have you maintained hope in the midst of seasons of grief?
The guest emphasizes patience with oneself, recognizing grief isn't linear, and points to the Psalms and the Gospel of John as ongoing sources of language, consolation, and assurance that God has not forgotten us.
Episode 52: Cherishing Life: Trusting God With a Life-Limiting Diagnosis with Matt and Taylor Walker of Abel Speaks
Q: What is the most important thing you would tell a mom or dad hearing this diagnosis today?
Reach out early for support and remember you are not alone; a community exists that will meet you where you are, provide practical steps for advocacy and celebration of life, and walk with you through anticipatory grief.
Episode 60: When Church is Hard: Staying Connected to the Body of Christ Through Grief with Eric Schumacher
Q: How should someone discern whether to stay in a church or find a different congregation when hurt by the church?
There is no one-size-fits-all answer; assess orthodoxy and practice, seek to understand your hurt, discuss with leaders, and be slow to leave unless there are clear doctrinal issues or ongoing harm that cannot be addressed.
