When someone you love is grieving a suicide loss, it’s easy to feel frozen—unsure what to say, how to help, or whether your presence will make a difference. But the truth is, your faithful presence can be one of the most powerful ways to reflect Christ’s love.

In this heartfelt episode, I share practical, compassionate ways to support a grieving friend—what to say (and what not to say), how to avoid Christian clichés, and why consistent care matters long after the funeral is over. You’ll also hear my own story of learning how to show up for someone walking through the kind of grief I know all too well.

If you’ve ever wondered how to love a grieving friend like Jesus would, this conversation will equip you with tools, empathy, and faith-based encouragement so you can be present in both prayer and action. Because no one should have to process grief and loss alone.

• Why presence is often more healing than perfect words
• How to offer comfort without falling into well-meaning but hurtful Christian clichés
• Practical ways to combine prayer with consistent, tangible acts of care

• Grief after suicide is layered and long-lasting—showing up consistently is an act of Christlike love

One of the most heart-wrenching questions many Christians face after losing someone to suicide is this: Are they with God? In this tender, faith-filled conversation, we gently explore Scripture, the heart of God, and how to find peace when you don’t have every answer.

I share my own journey of processing grief after losing my dear friend Nick, and the heavy, unspoken questions that followed. Together, we’ll look at what the Bible actually says about salvation, why suicide is not the unforgivable sin, and how God responds to deep mental anguish with compassion—not condemnation.

If you’re wrestling with uncertainty, carrying guilt, or longing for reassurance, this episode offers Christian grief support, biblical encouragement, and practical ways to rest in God’s mercy—even in the face of unanswered questions.

• Why suicide is not the unforgivable sin according to Scripture
• How God understands and responds to mental illness and deep sorrow
• Ways to release guilt and trust God’s goodness when processing grief

• Salvation rests in God’s grace through Jesus, not in how a life ends
• God’s character is merciful, just, and compassionate toward those who suffer
• You can grieve deeply while holding hope, trusting God with what you can’t see

Some people have a way of making the world brighter simply by being in it. For me, that person was my dear friend, Nicholas Evan Newman. In this deeply personal tribute, I share the story of a friendship that carried me through some of my darkest seasons—including the grief of losing my dad—and the heartbreaking reality of losing Nick to suicide in 2022.

You’ll hear how Nick’s joy, loyalty, and quiet strength left a permanent imprint on my life, and why his legacy continues to speak hope, even in his absence. This episode is a reminder that your grief is valid, your presence matters, and your life has more value than you may ever know.

If you’ve experienced suicide loss—or any form of grief and loss—I pray this conversation brings comfort, encourages you to reach out for support, and reminds you that God’s light still shines in the darkest places.

• How one friendship became a lifeline through grief and loss
• Why showing up—without fixing—can be the greatest gift to someone hurting
• A reminder that your life matters, even when it feels unbearably heavy

• Presence speaks louder than words when supporting someone in deep grief
• Even in loss, the love and impact of someone’s life can continue to bring light
• You don’t have to process grief alone—reach out, talk to someone, and let others in
