Dealing With Loss with Jodi Snowdon
Dealing with loss can often test the faith of even the most devout Christians, stirring difficult, soul-searching questions: Why would a loving God allow such pain? If He has the power to intervene, why does He choose not to? Jodi Snowdon faced these very questions, not just once, but three times. She endured the loss of her marriage, her newborn, and a dear friend—all profound moments of heartbreak that threatened to draw her away from her faith.
But instead of turning her back to God and losing faith in his everlasting love, Jodi found herself drawn closer to God, particularly in those difficult times. Each loss, though heartbreaking, became an opportunity to deepen her relationship with God and explore even greater depths of his loving-kindness. Join us as we explore Jodi’s journey into dealing with loss and heartbreak, and find inspiration in her struggles and success.
Meet Jodi Snowdon
Christian influencer, author, and podcaster, Jodi Snowdon’s life and ministry serve as a beacon of faith for believers navigating the storms of life. Having experienced profound personal losses, including the loss of her marriage, a pregnancy, and her close friend, Jodi is no stranger to the pain of loss and the turbulence grief can introduce to one’s Christian journey. What would have broken most people didn’t break her; instead of pulling her away from her faith, her experiences with loss only succeeded in drawing her closer to God.
In many ways, Jodi's journey into ministry began with tragedy. She had been going through the worst heartbreak of her life at the time; she had just experienced a rough divorce with her husband of XX years and was having a hard time processing the grief and pain. With nowhere else to turn to, Jodi turned to scripture and that single action changed the direction of her life and kick-started her ministry.
“I wasn’t always an avid reader,” Jodie shared during our session. “I actually began devouring books the year after my divorce to help me process the grief and pain. Interestingly, the hardest year of my life became the most growing year in my faith. I felt the presence of God like never before”
The pain of loss brought Jodi closer to God and led her to a deeper understanding of His grace. Having found the Lord faithful even in the depth of her grief and His words soothing in the midst of her pain, Jodi decided to share this good news with everyone else who might be experiencing loss like she had.
“This is why I started sharing my faith journey online – to remind others that God can redeem their broken story too.”
