221: Is God Punishing Me? (with Debra Hayes)

Grieving Parents Sharing Hope

In today's episode, Laura talks with a guest who questioned if God was punishing her with child loss because of an abortion she had in her younger years (based on the shame of losing her image as a good Christian girl).

This is an excellent talk for those who have the same question, wondering if God allowed your child to die as a punishment for something in your past.

Debra Lynn Hayes is an author and speaker who understands everyone’s journey through mourning and into healing is an individualized process and it is priceless to connect with someone who “gets it”. She has many years of corporate experience where she strategized success for individuals and teams. Today she uses those same skills as she leads and guides those who have experienced major tragedies, deep heartaches and mind altering disappointments.
