This Is NOT a Christmas Story: Coming Back After Grief | 12 Days of Christmas Ep 2
This is not a Christmas story.
This is a story about perspective.
About how the same moment can mean everything to one person—and almost nothing to another.
Over the next twelve episodes on Together 4 Good, we’re sharing real stories that remind us we don’t all experience joy, meaning, or even God in the same way.
This is not a Christmas story.
But it is a real one.
In this episode, Addison shares her story of losing her mom at a young age—and how grief changed her relationship with faith and the church.
After her mom’s funeral at Bethany, returning felt impossible. The memories, the questions, and the weight of expectation made faith feel distant instead of comforting.
This story is about grief, boundaries, and the slow work of finding support again—not all at once, but one step at a time.
