About this listen

The Girl on the Bathroom Floor is a raw and unflinching look at the moments most never share, the ones behind closed doors, on the bathroom floor, in your car, or hidden in the closet—where pain, fear, and grief seem to hit hardest. It's also a promise that, even there, you are still tenderly held by a God who grieves with you and offers you hope through suffering even when everything else is falling apart.

Amber Smith, wife of former country music artist, Granger Smith invites you into the most vulnerable spaces of her life, behind the closed doors where she wrestled with the traumatic and heartbreaking death of their three-year-old son, River. Amber opens the door to the unseen pain and the relentless ache following his death, the countless tears shed in private, along with the soul altering aftermath of a life forever changed.

But even before River's tragic passing, Amber was no stranger to tears on the bathroom floor. From the pressures of motherhood, family members experiencing addiction, broken relationships, and feelings of helplessness while watching loved ones suffer, Amber explores what to do when faced with all the types of pain that can drive you to your knees. For the one who wants to:

  • discover where God is in a world of hurt;
  • navigate private pain with grace and grit;
  • find hope and joy in the midst of suffering; and
  • uncover the power of faith through the darkest of times

Amber offers her story of despair but not defeat, to illustrate how grief does not have to separate you from hope or joy. In fact, it can lead you to it. This book aims to serve as a compass for those feeling unseen and undone, pointing towards the true source of profound healing, our Savior Jesus. The Girl on the Bathroom Floor sheds light on the dark shadows of hurt so many endure, offering hope through your season of sorrow.
