Grieving With Hope (Reprinted)
$15.99Add to cartPractical and straightforward, yet warm and compassionate, Grieving with Hope clarifies the popular misconception that people move through stages of grief.

It helps readers accurately interpret the message their emotions are sending them and gently guides them to determine whether they’re grieving in a way that leads to hope and ultimate healing. Developed from interviews with over 30 well-respected Christian counselors, teachers, and authors, as well as numerous personal testimonies, Grieving with Hope helps the bereaved discover how hope and peace are available amidst their heartache and pain.
