Beauty from the Ashes

There is beauty in the ashes. When suicide shatters your life and you are hanging on by a thread, God’s Word offers comfort, healing, and restoration. Grief after suicide is unique and can feel unbearable and isolating, but God has not abandoned you.

In this nine-week informational Bible study, Shonda McBride walks alongside other suicide loss survivors, helping them understand their feelings and experiences, and helps them find strength and comfort through Scripture. Each week, one will come to understand the uniqueness of their suicide grief and focus on what God’s Word has to say, along with reflection questions, journaling prompts, and activities to help process the pain from losing someone to suicide and find beauty in the ashes.

Whether you are beginning your healing journey or have been struggling for years, this study reminds us that we are not alone and Jesus still has a purpose in the pain. It is in our suffering that God reveals himself the most. Let this be an invitation to sit at the feet of Jesus and allow him to heal your pain, bring beauty from the ashes, and restore your joy.
