How can we experience God's presence in grief?
Today's guest, Steve Johnson, shares the hope and healing for those suffering grief and loss.
A multiple Emmy Award-winning producer, Steve is the Executive Director/Executive Producer, as well as a co-founder, of Five Stone Media. Steve’s producing career specialized in both live and taped events, managing multiple projects simultaneously and developing innovative program and content concepts for clients ESPN, FOX Networks, Turner Broadcasting and others. After meeting John Turnipseed around the campfire, a passion for telling transformational stories of redemption was formed, and Five Stone Media was born. Steve and his wife Jennifer have 4 grown children and 5 grandchildren, and enjoys the world of aviation and chasing race cars.
Johnson recounts the inspiration behind collecting personal stories of transformation. He describes the impact of John Turnipseed's testimony as a reformed gang leader and the process of gathering stories for a documentary and book.
Five Stone Media projects follow the principles of Story Hope Healing and Change, whether film or print projects.
Johnson shares his passion to help the body of Christ to be better equipped to come alongside each other.
Steve shares the following key things he discovered when interviewing those suffering through grief:
Well-meaning Christians struggled to respond well Acts of support and kindness sometimes help more than words (cleaning, yard work, building a garden) Grieving differs for each person There's no set timetable for grief Hope can take time to embrace A small fragment of hope is a much-needed start The majority of those who grieve traumatic loss go through a period of feeling angry at God, but the Lord can handle anger with love and understanding Psalms offer incredible opportunities for emotional healingConnect with Steve Johnson at fivestonemedia.com, where you can find the book God is Always with You.
