BUILDING STRONG HOMES podcast
HOST: CAROL ROPER
Today I’m introducing you to Melanie Forbes Cook. Melanie’s story is heartbreaking but hopeful. She lost her 52-year-old husband to a heart attack just 14 months ago after almost 25 years of marriage and ministry. I know death and grief can be an uncomfortable subjects to deal with, but Melanie has so much wisdom to share with those who are either walking their own grief journey or have someone in their life who is. She also shares how she and her husband adopted three children from foster care and how one of those children, in particular, stretched her faith in a huge way and taught her how to trust God more. It’s a lesson she still clings to as she walks through the grief of losing her husband. I know you’ll learn so much from her story.
