Breath Again with Stacy Henagan :: [Episode 42]

Feb 26, 2021

Hi, I’m Melissa Clark. I’m a professional counselor in the Dallas area with a passion for helping you overcome challenges, process painful emotions, and understand your God-given identity.

Thank you so much for being here! I believe listening to this podcast will leave you feeling excited, educated, and empowered.

Today, we are talking with Stacy Henegan. Stacy is a passionate pastor, speaker, author, and annual women’s conference host. With more than twenty-six years of people-building experience, Stacy’s weekly teachings offer inspiring biblical truth as well as practical application.

In this episode, we discuss the loss of Stacy’s daughter, Haven as well as Stacy’s new book, “Breathe Again: Choosing to Believe There’s More When Life Has Left You Broken.” Rather than choosing to remain in overwhelming pain and doubt, Stacy emerged with a much greater belief that God is good and trustworthy, even when we don’t think His plans make sense.

In this episode, we also discussed:

1. Be honest with the people in your life about the level of support that you need.
   
2. Even in the midst of our grief journey, we have to keep swimming and moving forward.
   
3. Practical tips to move forward in the middle of our grief.
   

Quotes I loved:

• “It is when our pain and our theology collide that we most need real answers and solid truth.”
  
• “Disappointment is birthed from unmet expectations.”
  
• “In every crisis, every deferred dream, every disappointment, is an invitation to meet with God. Pain or possibility - that’s our choice."
