Grief & Loss

Often the most authentic voices on this subject are the voices of experience, and this selection is full of those! Our Top 3 are powerful books, written from personal grief and loss, and aimed at helping those walking this most difficult of paths. We begin with Tim Challies' Seasons of Sorrow which was written following the death of his student son and shows how one can find strength in the midst of heartache. Voices of experience don't come much more authentic than someone who lost three generations of his family in one tragic accident, but in A Grace Disguised, Jerry Sittser shows how these - and similar events - though desperately difficult, can also be occasions and opportunities to experience God's grace. And if you've lost a loved one, Lewis' classic, A Grief Observed, written after the death of his beloved wife, is still one of the best places to start when ttying to come to terms with grief and loss.
