Historians have thoroughly documented the vast devastation of the Civil War. In the attention they have paid to aspects of that destruction, however, one of the most obvious ramifications appears routinely overlooked—Confederate widowhood. Dr. Jennifer Lynn Gross's Sisterhood of the Lost Cause: Confederate Widows in the New South (LSU Press, 2025) helps rectify that historical omission by supplying a sweeping analysis of women whose husbands perished in the war. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

There are many ways that God calls people to lives of holiness. Just as he calls lay people to holiness, he also calls individuals to consecrated life, including hermits, consecrated virgins, widows, and religious. In a very intentional, specific, and lifelong way, those in consecrated life commit themselves to the evangelical counsels of poverty, chastity, and obedience. Father Mike helps us see how all the different kinds of consecrated life are a great gift to the Church and the world. Despite the many ways the Lord calls his children to holiness, the goal of each human life remains the same – intimacy with Christ. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 914-924.

In Part 2 of Compelled, Lori Apon shares how God faithfully upheld His promise to be “a Father to the fatherless and a Ddefender of widows” (Psalm 68:5) after her husband, Bobby, tragically took his life. Left to raise eight young children alone, Lori clung to God's word, trusting that He would provide—and He did.Through years of uncertainty and hardship, God's provision came in miraculous ways: anonymous gifts, unexpected opportunities, and even full college scholarships for all eight of her children. Despite the overwhelming challenges, Lori watched her children grow into faithful followers of Christ, defying statistics and reflecting God's grace. Now, as the founder of Perspective Ministries, Lori dedicates her life to serving widows and fatherless children, empowering them to trust God's promises just as she did.Key Moments:(01:20) Recap of Part 1: Lori's journey through marriage challenges and tragedy.(06:30) God's Promise in Psalm 68:5: A timely reminder of God's presence.(15:45) Provision Beyond Imagination: How God met every need after Bobby's death.(26:10) Raising 8 Children with God's Help: The Apon family's testimony of trust and faith.(38:30) Defying the Statistics: How God guided each of Lori's children into adulthood.(46:00) A New Mission: Founding Perspective Ministries to care for widows and the fatherless.(55:45) Encouragement for Widows and Single Moms: Lori's heartfelt words of hope.Takeaway: Lori's story is a testament to God's unwavering faithfulness.

"In a blended family, fairness and mutual understanding are key, especially when navigating the complexities of prenuptial and postnuptial agreements.” -Donna Kendrick   Navigating love after loss or divorce comes with a host of emotional and financial complexities, especially when blending families.   Our hosts, Stephanie McCullough and Kevin Gaines, speak with Donna Kendrick, a financial planner who has lived through these transitions herself. After losing her husband unexpectedly, Donna rebuilt her life and career with a mission to help families in flux—widows, divorcées, and newly blended households.   She shares how combining lives means combining financial baggage too, from income disparities and home equity dilemmas to prenups, life insurance, and estate planning. Donna's candid story highlights the power of transparency and empathy in financial conversations, especially when trust has been tested.   Her advice? Begin with individual clarity—define your needs, wants, and non-negotiables—then collaborate with your partner.   Donna emphasizes the importance of communication, fairness, and ongoing adjustment as life evolves. Her blend of financial savvy and emotional wisdom offers a powerful reminder: managing money in remarriage is less about spreadsheets and more about mutual understanding.   Key Topics: Donna Kendrick's Story (00:00) Reprioritizing Your Beneficiaries in a Blended Family (12:30) Why Donna Decided to Remarry (16:01) Letting Your Kids Know About Their Future Financial Realities (21:16) Factors When Considering Remarriage (27:28) What Donna Did Wrong During the Process (and What She Did Right) (32:18) Key Takeaways (37:31)   Resources: Connect with Donna Widow, Wisdom & Wealth Podcast Take Back Retirement Ep 109: Remarriage & Money: Janice Guinn Joins the Conversation on Love, Legalities, and Life Planning     If you like what you've been hearing, we invite you to subscribe on your favorite platform and leave us a review.

Pastor Todd shares Friday's devotional podcast from Bible Fellowship Church. [Scripture: James 1:27]

In this episode, I sit down with two fabulous and funny podcast hosts, Anita Coyle and Mel Shore, founders of the Widow We Do Now? podcast. They share their experiences of widowhood, both the parts that are isolating and pieces that have lifted them up. How might you help a friend who is newly widowed after a long period as a caregiver? Or a coworker who loses a partner suddenly? What about if someone wasn't legally married, but intended to spend their life with someone, who then dies? What the heck is the word for that? We all need education in this area, to better understand ourselves and to be better prepared to offer support to others. https://widowwedonow.com/https://www.facebook.com/widowwedonow/http://instagram.com/widowwedonow

In Mark 12:28-44, Jesus affirms the greatest commandments—love for God and neighbor—challenges the scribes' understanding of the Messiah, condemns their hypocrisy, and praises a widow's sacrificial offering as true devotion.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/lets-talk-scripture/donations

Seven Resurrections - The Raising of the Widows Son - Sunday Morning 04-06-25

What if I start to forget them? What if I forget their laugh, their smell, the quirky things they used to say and do?This is one of the biggest fears we have as widows. We put so much pressure on ourselves to be the sole record-keeper of our loved one and the life we shared together. It's impossible to remember every detail, and for that, we tend to be hard on ourselves and even feel guilt. The fear of forgetting is a natural and normal part of grief AND there are steps you can take to help preserve the memories.It starts with asking some MEMORY QUESTIONS. These are questions you can ask friends and family to help you with. I encourage you to sit and take some time on this bittersweet exercise to recall the memories you don't want to forget.Get the list at https://www.widow180.com/memories Be sure to join our Facebook group, Widow 180 The Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/312036956454927Also follow us on Insta: https://www.instagram.com/widow_180/Check us out on YouTube at Widow 180: The Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-DK_dl31qMilJ5cE6t9MVQFor more blog posts and resources go to www.widow180.comQuestions?

God's special care for widows is a recurring theme inScripture (Deut 14:29; Ps 94:6; Mal 3:5). God issued specialinstruction for the care and protection of widows in the Old Testament (Deut 10:18; 24:17; Is 1:17). Similarly, in the New Testament, God has given the church a responsibility to care for widows in need (1 Tim 5:3-16; James 1:27).

These stories cover a wide range of topics, from financial challenges to the importance of self-care, and we also provide practical advice on pre-planning financial and legal needs, protecting against 'brain fog,' and supporting widows through intentional friendships.
