Each GriefShare video session is designed to help you recover from your grief after the loss of a family member, friend or acquaintance. Each GriefShare session combines practical information with a biblical, Christ-centered focus on the spiritual issues which accompany the grieving process:

 

SESSION 1- When Your Dreams Fall Apart
An overview of the GriefShare program; the first steps to understanding your grief and the losses which accompany it; sharing your hurt with others.

 

SESSION 2- Seasons Of Grief
What to expect during your "season" of grief; how grief can "ambush" you; how men and women respond differently to grief issues.

 

SESSION 3- Emotions Of Grief (1)
Facing the flood of emotions which accompany grief; examining shock, anger, denial, blame and regret; feeling out of control and helpless; avoiding self-destructive solutions to easing the pain.

 

SESSION 4- Emotions Of Grief (2)
Avoiding emotional ruts; avoiding traps of self-pity, fear of the future and bitterness; discovering the freedom of forgiveness.

 

SESSION 5- When Your Spouse Dies
Why the death of a spouse is unique and an especially deep loss; how to respond when you feel like you've "lost your identity;" how to deal with feelings that you will "never feel normal again;" discovering how the Lord can fill the gap left by your mate's death.

 

SESSION 6- Your Family And Grief
Coping with the loss of a child or parent; the stresses such a death can bring to a family; coping with suicide; how to help children grieve.

 

SESSION 7- Where Is God?
Why did God allow this death to happen?; what do I do with unanswerable questions confronting me?; how to trust God and grow closer to Him even when you don't have all the answers.

 

SESSION 8- Your Greatest Resource
How to draw upon your relationship with Christ for strength as you face grief; how to find Christ if you've never known Him; how He can guide and comfort you through this difficult time in a way nobody else can.

 

SESSION 9- Stuck In Grief Or Moving On
Understanding false guilt; identifying hidden grief; confronting actions and attitudes which cause you to become "stuck;" steps you can take to move forward through the grieving process.

 

SESSION 10- Growing Through Grief
Becoming "bitter or better" through your grief experience; experiencing unparalleled spiritual growth; reaching out to others to help them in their time of grief

.

SESSION 11- Grief Recovery Toolkit
Claiming God's joy and hope for the future in your life; using practical tools such as a journal, conversations with friends, helping others, prayer, Bible study and praise to assist you in recovering from your grief.

 

SESSION 12- God’s Spiritual Hospital
This important session shows how the church can serve as “extended family” and assist you in the healing process. You will also see how to use your own experiences in ministry to others.

 

SESSION 13- Longing for Heaven
Can a person really recover from the hurt and pain that comes during the grieving process? Will there ever be a time when all sorrow and pain are gone forever? This final session is filled with good news as you see how one day the Lord will wipe away every tear and there will be no more sorrow or pain.
