Finding Joy After Loss We live in faith. We are taught that we should replace our fear with faith. But what happens when some of your biggest fears are realized?
After the loss of her son to drug use, and a string of other trials that followed, Shaunna has been on a journey to answer this question and find joy. Emerging from a cloud of sorrow and crisis of faith, she wishes to help others on their journey to tackle those “trials in piles” and continue to walk by faith in consistently calling upon a personal and loving God
