Here is a very touching, sad, and yet strangely encouraging video of Nancy Guthrie discussing the death of her two little babies. After these profound experiences, Nancy and her husband David founded GriefShare, a Bible-based grief recovery program that is now available nearly everywhere in the USA and even in some churches around the world. She then went on to author many books and devotionals related to grief, but also then turned her attention to writing Bible studies in general. Over the past few years our women's study groups at Exeter Presbyterian Church have used three of her books: Hoping For Something Better: Refusing to Settle for Life as Usual (based on the book of Hebrews), The Word of the Lord: Seeing Jesus in the Prophets, and presently The Wisdom of God: Seeing Jesus in the Psalms and Wisdom books.
I thought it would be good for those new to EPC and for those not part of EPC to hear the story of how God has used this incredible woman and her painful experiences for her good and His glory.
Have I mentioned that Nancy Guthrie has hugged me twice? I am definitely a Guthrie Groupie. 😀

What a beautiful person, such a sad story, and yet I think of what an impact this woman has had on my life and the lives of so many others because she had to walk through this sorrow. Her honesty she shares with us about having to carry and give birth to another baby that was just going to die shows all of us what a strong faith walk with God she has. Gabe was Unplanned, and I am going to see that movie tonight. She kept her Unplanned baby and walked through his short life loving and treasuring every moment of it. God bless her! Debbi
