Loss and Discovery

As you read this book, you will see that grief is something more than a necessary response to loss; and as you move towards grieving people with the compassion of Jesus, this book will help you understand the operations of grief in the thinking, feeling, acting, relating and bodily experience of those who are suffering. It will also prepare you to enter authentically into the foreign world of another person's grief with biblical, historical and psychological frameworks within which to understand the loss, and in which to accompany grieving people in their pain.
