Good Grief

In this first episode of Season 2, Kevin and Paul introduce the expanded focus of the podcast. They then interview Josh Ross, minister at Sycamore View Church of Christ in Memphis, TN. Josh shares his story of grieving his sister's death, and what he's learned about living with grief over the past decade. We discuss the importance of letting ourselves grieve, as well as how to walk with others in their grief. To delve further into this topic, see Josh's book list below.
