Christian Counseling and Loss of a Child

Posted January 3rd, 2012.

When Christian Counseling bereaved parents who lose a child it can be tragic but a necessary session.  As Christian counselors, the biggest thing one can remind grieving parents is the grief of Mary who also lost her only son.  The traumatic crucifixion of her son before her very eyes is the worst nightmare any parent could have.  Sometimes realizing that God and his saints do not preach from a distant pulpit but actually suffered how we do is comforting to spiritual and religious people.  Knowing that who they pray to also experienced pain is in some ways soothing and therapeutic for those who grieve now.
