32 - The Moon is Always Round – Seeing God’s Goodness Even When Your Baby Has Died with Jonathan and Jackie Gibson
Manage episode 349866474 series 2938161
Join us for a conversation with Jonathan and Jackie Gibson about seeing God's goodness even when your baby has died. After their daughter was stillborn, Jonathan wrote a book called The Moon is Always Round.
The book is based on a catechism he taught his oldest living son about how God is always good even when we can't see it (just like how the moon is always round even when it's not fully visible).
Jonathan (Jonny) shares the inspiration for his book as well as his grieving journey alongside his wife, Jackie. They share practical wisdom and hope with couples grieving a baby in Heaven.

- Processing grief and explaining the loss of a baby to living children
- Conversations with siblings of a baby born stillborn
- The story behind the book, The Moon is Always Round

- Faith moving from theory to reality
- Intimacy with Jesus in the loneliness of grief
- Grieving differently than your spouse, but moving in the same direction
- How to support bereaved dads
- Reading the Bible systematically
