Hope Ahead: A Journey of Infertility
Claim This Podcastby Ryan and Naomi Rippstein
Podcast Overview
<p>Hope Ahead is a husband's & wife's perspectives of being unable to conceive after a miscarriage. We hope this story/journey will glorify God & be encouraging to those who are currently dealing with or have dealt with infertility. We also hope that this will be informative to friends or family of those involved who don't know what to to say or do during this season. We pray for God to use this time in our lives to draw us & you closer to Him & to the ultimate purpose He has for us. We will pray during each podcast for God's will & blessing over this situation & give a scripture related to the topics discussed. This journey isn't easy, but knowing you aren't alone, and having an outlet to share and talk about it is a step towards healing. Often times, we suffer in silence and don't know how to talk about it. We also hope that this will bring more awareness to the issue and classification of "infertility" and provide more discussions and funding to work towards a better future for those of us in the "20%."</p><p>To watch our podcasts on video, find us @hopeaheadjourney on YouTube </p>
