Hope After Child & Sibling Loss/the empty chair endeavor
A Christian faith based podcast shining the light of Hope into the darkness of trauma and grief to offer support and encouragement to grieving parents and siblings on their healing journey and in rediscovering meaning, purpose, and peace after the unspeakable loss of a child. Join us as guests share their stories of heartbreaking loss and how God has shown up on their journeys to heal and restore broken lives. The host, Greg Buffkin, lives with his wife Cathy in South Carolina. Because Cathy and Greg lost their beautiful son Ryan to suicide in 2015, they understand the trauma and pain of losing a child. On a journey that began 10 years ago out of unspeakable trauma and brokenness, GOD has brought them through to a place of restoration, hope and joy with a passion to help other grieving families on their journeys.
