Josiah, after wrestling with depression, miraculously reconnected with Jesus finding joy and peace… only to be struck by a car… reuniting with his baby brother Jeremiah in Heaven. Lara, Josiah's mother, shares how God’s compassionate presence was experienced - before, during, and after. God is with you in the darkest valley and weeps with you as you grieve. Be encouraged, build your faith, and become equipped to face grief in your own life, and be prepared to compassionately lift another’s burdens in their time of need.
