Finding Hope: Sabrina McDonald on Love, Loss, and Blending Families

Welcome back to the podcast, friends!

I took the summer off from hosting guests because the only time I had to record sans kiddos was around 5AM and who wants to have that conversation? Not me and definitely not any potential guest. But it’s September now and it’s been a total delight to be sitting at my desk (after 8AM) preparing this beautiful episode for you today.

This season on We Have This Hope, you’re going to hear from some incredible women who will share their expertise, their passions, but mainly their stories—what God has done in their lives that’s anchored them to hope and carried them through seasons of love and loss. That’s what today’s conversation is about.

Sabrina McDonald is a gifted writer and speaker. For over 20 years she’s written about marriage and family, publishing works with Focus on the Family, FamilyLife and most recently releasing her book A Home Built from Love and Loss: Coming Together as a Blended Family. This book is such a beautiful blend of authentic storytelling and practical wisdom. Truly, I found myself thinking about it during the day and then re-telling portions of it to Dustin at night. That’s the true sign of a book I love.

In today’s episode Sabrina shares her story of being widowed as a young mom and how God carried her through a season of tremendous loss. She talks honestly about her journey into remarriage and blending families and ultimately how God has written her story in a way she never would have imagined. There’s something in this episode for everyone, I promise, so listen all the way to the end and tell a friend about it.
