How do we face emotions like fear and anger in a way that honors God? And how do we carry the weight of those emotions without letting go of our grip on Christ? In this episode, Kristin sits down with author, Bible teacher, and fellow Hope Mom Courtney Reissig to talk about repeated griefs, high-risk pregnancies, and learning to express deep emotions in a way that draws us closer to God. Both share their personal stories of extended hospital bedrest following previous loss—journeys that ended in celebration yet were marked by uncertainty and wrestling. Together, we explore: What it’s like to live in the tension of hope and heartbreak How to process painful emotions in a godly and honest way The example of Christ–Who expressed human emotion How the Psalms can teach us to pray, lament, and trust The unchanging nature of Christ in the face of life’s uncertainties What it looks like to choose not to walk away from God—even when it's hard Courtney also shares about her upcoming book, Someone to Believe In, which invites readers to cling to the steadfast character of Jesus when everything else feels unsteady. Courtney Reissig is an author and Bible teacher living in Little Rock, Arkansas. She is the author of numerous books and Bible studies, including Someone to Believe In: Embracing the Savior Who Stays the Same When Everything Else Changes. Whether she is teaching the Bible to a room full of women or teaching literature to a class of high school students, Courtney is passionate about readers of all ages finding their experience in a compelling story.  Whether you're in the thick of a high-risk pregnancy, grieving a loss, or just feeling overwhelmed by your emotions, this conversation is a gentle, Christ-centered reminder that you are not alone, that no emotion is too big for God, and that Jesus is with you, even in the waiting.   Links: CourtneyReissig.com Teach Me To Feel: Worshiping Through the Psalms in Every Season of Life Someone to Believe In: Embracing the Savior Who Stays the Same When Everything Else Changes Hope Mommies Website Join our online Facebook Group Connect with us on Facebook Connect with us on Instagram Podcast Guest Submission Make a Donation Sponsor an episode of the HM Podcast  The Hope Mommies Podcast is a ministry of Hope Mommies, a non-profit 501(c)3 organization that exists to bring bereaved families comfort, encouragement, and relational support as they continue to walk this side of eternity without their beloved son or daughter.
