The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast Hands Off, Head Up: Mattie Jackson Smith on Loss and Hope
Mattie Jackson Smith's World Was Shattered
Just shy of her one-year anniversary with her husband Ben, a seemingly small accident left her widowed and wondering where God was. Her story is full of grief, pain, and loss, but lands on hope and a future full of God's kept promises. Her book Lemons on Friday is one of the best books on finding your way through grief I've ever read, and Mattie is on the podcast today to give you hope!
Mattie's podcast is incredible: In Joy Life
