このコンテンツについて

Jesus cradles us in hope as He cradles our babies in Heaven. What if the hope of Heaven had the power to heal your heart after the loss of your baby? Miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant loss are heartbreaking experiences that no mother should ever have to endure. Drowning in sadness, you cry out in pain, "God, where are You? Why did You let my baby die?" You feel abandoned by Him and question His goodness. How will you ever live without your precious baby? Will you ever see him or her again? Ashley Opliger asked these same questions when her daughter, Bridget, was born into Heaven at 24 weeks in her first pregnancy. In a crisis of faith, Ashley chose to surrender her suffering and allow God to heal her heart. She found purpose in her pain when she started Bridget's Cradles, a nonprofit that now comforts thousands of grieving families across the country. Through her own story of heartbreak, Ashley will guide you on a journey to trust God's promise to restore your joy, use your grief for good, and spend eternity with your baby in Heaven. Podcast episodes feature hope-filled messages, stories, and guest interviews. Grieving mothers will be reminded that though we may grieve, we do not grieve without hope!

    In this heartfelt and Spirit-led episode, Ashley welcomes returning guest Moria Rooney to share the God-breathed vision behind her new ministry, Holy Ground Retreats. A follow-up to Episode 21, this conversation continues Moria’s story of grief, healing, and purpose after the loss of her son, Noah.

    In this episode, we discussed:

    • The inspiration and surrender behind launching Holy Ground Retreats
    • How smaller, intimate gatherings create space for deep healing
    • Grieving in isolation vs. grieving in Christ-centered community
    • The importance of addressing unbiblical beliefs around suffering and loss
    • Worship, deliverance, rededications, and baptisms at the first Holy Ground retreat
    • A powerful God story of how the Lord provided a multimillion-dollar beach house
    • Why every grieving mom needs a safe space to encounter Jesus
    • Using your baby’s story to share the Gospel and build the Kingdom
