Join Daniel in a conversation with Emily Jones of Brave Widow, an organization where young widows can find healing, hope, and the courage to dream again. Emily lost her husband and best friend, Neal, one month before their 20th wedding anniversary in 2021. She was just 37 and the mother of four children, ages 12-21.

In addition to her own grief, Emily became aware of the different grief styles unique to her children and how family connection and open communication helped her keep them grounded and anchored in their faith in God.
