Around the meal table, needs are met. As participants we celebrate the common solution to our physical need - bread. While we do so, bread of another type is broken as well. Help, hope and encouragement are shared to meet the needs of our struggles, heartaches and questions. Breaking Bread is reminiscent of these life giving conversations. This podcast strives to meet some of our common needs through our common solution The Bread of Life.

The Ache of Loss, the Hope of Healing
Sunday, 7 June, 2026

Loss is common to all of us and yet unique. Pain accompanies our losses, and grief accompanies our pain. In this episode of Breaking Bread, Bill Schmidgall and Kathy Knochel speak to this common yet unique experience of grieving and the hope for healing. Show notes: Grief marks the pain of loss, which by God's grace, is holy ground for God's shaping in our lives. Grieving: the reaction to the pain of losing someone or something dear. Losses: people, possessions, hopes, aspirations that were real at one time and now are not. Despair: the unsettling hopeless feeling of realizing what once was, will not ever be again. Hope: finding a settled peace where the loss has its proper present effect on your new normal.
