195 | Myths & Cliches of Grief (Part One) with Austin DeArmond

"Time heals all wounds." 
"God will never give you more than you can handle." 
"The lessening of pain indicates a lessening of love." 

Have you heard any of these unhelpful statments since you experienced the loss of a child?  If so, you're not alone.  In our western culture, we have a tendency to minimize grief, to gloss over it with glib platitudes.  In today's episode, Austin DeArmond and I have a great conversation in which we discuss and debunk ten of these myths and cliches.  Be sure and come back next week when we tackle ten more!
