Скачать или смотреть 290 | When the House Grows Quiet (Part Two) with Dawn Helms

Today's episode features a continuation of my conversation with Dawn Helms as we focus on life after the loss of her only child, Ben.


Dawn shares practical, compassionate wisdom for parents in the early days of grief—about accepting help, resisting isolation, and leaning into community even when it feels hard. She reflects on the quiet that follows years of caregiving, navigating everyday questions, and approaching holidays when traditions feel overwhelming.


Throughout our conversation, Dawn points to the faith that has sustained her—not a faith that takes the pain away, but one that meets her in it. She shares the Scriptures, music, and moments of God’s provision that have helped her keep going.

The While We’re Waiting (https://www.WhileWereWaiting.org) ministry hosts free, faith-based retreats for bereaved parents across the country, offering space for rest, understanding, and community.  I would love to have the opportunity to meet you at one of our retreats!
