They explore what it means to live in the in between, where prayers feel unanswered, hope feels distant, and God seems quiet. Drawing from Scripture and their own stories of pregnancy and infant loss, Jennie and Kristin speak honestly about the tension of trusting a faithful God while carrying deep sorrow. They reflect on how Holy Saturday mirrors the experience of so many grieving mothers and how to hold onto God's promises in a story that feels unbearably broken. When our babies die, we are living in the waiting. We know what is coming, but we have not yet seen it. In that tension, faith is not the absence of grief. It is trusting God in the middle of what has not yet been made new. This episode gently reminds Hope Moms that waiting is not wasted, silence is not abandonment, and faith does not require rushing toward joy. For the mom who feels stuck in the middle of the story, this conversation offers permission to stay, to breathe, and to trust that God is still at work, even when nothing seems to be happening.

We get it all back – the love, the loved ones, the goods, the beauties of this life – but in new, unimaginable degrees of glory and joy and strength." https://www.facebook.com/TimKellerNYC/posts/but-resurrection-is-not-just-consolation-it-is-restoration-we-get-it-all-back-th/1063849088430129/ Links: Hope Mommies Website Subscribe to our Newsletter Join our online Facebook Group Connect with us on Facebook Connect with us on Instagram Podcast Guest Submission Make a Donation In… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/hope-mommies-podcast-gospel-hope-for-grieving-moms-6741433/episodes/episode-65-living-in-holy-saturday-grief-faith-and-waiting-on-god-after-loss-with-kristin-hernandez-and-jennie-parks/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/hope-mommies-podcast-gospel-hope-for-grieving-moms-6741433/episode-65-living-in-holy-saturday-grief-faith-and-waiting-on-god-after-loss-with-kristin-hernandez-and-jennie-parks.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
