When someone we know is grieving, we want to help. We want to say or do something that helps them - but what? Sometimes we end up staying away or being silent, afraid that we will do or say the wrong thing - that we will hurt instead of help.
In this straightforward and practical book, Nancy Guthrie provides us with the insight we need to confidently interact with grieving people. Drawing upon the input of hundreds of grieving people, as well as her own experience of grief, Nancy offers specifics on what to say or do, and what to avoid. Tackling touchy topics such as talking about heaven, and navigating interactions on social media, this book will equip readers to support those who are grieving with wisdom and love.
"This book is tender, compassionate, clear, honest, gospel-rich, and practical. There is nothing distant and theoretical about it, because it's written out of the deep well of the author's own experience."?
- Paul David Tripp, President, Paul Tripp Ministries; Author, What Did You Expect?
