Hour 2: Grief Redeemed

Can grief actually be our friend? Can we see the kindness of God in the "new country" after loss? Dawn welcomes author Stephen Silver to help us navigate the grief journey with his book Grief Redeemed.

Hour 3: Resilient and Redeemed

Do you have questions about the Bible? Dr. Michael Rydelnik will join Dawn and Steve in the Morning to take questions from listeners! Dr. Michael Rydelnik is a professor of Jewish Studies at Moody Bible Institute and the Bible teacher on Moody Radio's Open Line.

To wrap up today's show, Chris Morris bravely shares his story and his book Resilient and Redeemed: Lessons about Suicidality and Depression from the Psych Ward. Chris is a passionate mental health advocate dedicated to promoting understanding of mental health issues within the church. Because of a lifelong struggle with depression and suicidality, Chris became committed to breaking down the stigma surrounding mental health and encouraging others to seek after holistic health. As a writer and speaker, Chris has shared his personal story and insights with audiences across the country, inspiring many individuals to take control of their own health, break free from poor theological teaching placed upon them, and seek the support they need.
