Hope After Child & Sibling Loss/the empty chair endeavor
An outreach of The Empty Chair Endeavor designed to support and equip grieving parents and siblings in rediscovering hope, purpose, and joy after unspeakable tragedy. Additionally, our mission involves educating the public about the life altering impact the death of a child has upon survivors, both parents and siblings, and equipping them to better support and minister to them. Join us as guests share their stories of heartbreaking loss and how God has shown up on their journeys to restore hope, meaning and purpose. The host, Greg Buffkin, lives with his wife Cathy in South Carolina. Because Cathy and Greg lost their beautiful son Ryan to suicide in 2015, they understand the trauma and pain of losing a child. On a journey that began 9 years ago out of unspeakable trauma and brokenness, GOD has brought them through to a place of restoration, hope and joy with a passion to help other grieving families on their journeys.
DISCLAIMER: The views, opinions, and beliefs expressed by our guests are not necessarily shared by this podcast or its host. We believe there is only one GOD: the Father, His son Jesus Christ, and His Holy Spirit (the Trinity). We also believe that the Holy Bible is the inspired, inerrant, eternal word of GOD which is our source of all truth.

A Conversation with Jeff Rollins, Zoe's dad
May 7, 2014 found Jeff and Mackenzie Rollins off to another day filled with the same activities as so many other young parents; feeding, dressing and dropping kids off at the sitter's, then on to a busy day of work. But then came the phone call that changed everything and turned their world upside down. It was the call that every parent fears. How could their sweet, beautiful, healthy 3 month old baby daughter, Zoe be gone, afterall, she was just fine when they had dropped her off at daycare earlier? Listen as Jeff talks about losing Zoe to SIDS and how he and Mackenzie began a journey of trying to navigate the trauma of grief they were suddenly thrust into. I believe you will be inspired, encouraged, and blessed as Jeff shares how GOD’s faithfulness carried them through such a dark season and restored hope, joy and a new found purpose called Hope Family Care Ministries.
