Time does not heal--the agony of loss remains and, in some cases, intensifies with the passing of time unless you take action.
Are you ready to move forward and reclaim your life with renewed hope and purpose?Life Interrupted, endorsed by Dr David and Lisa Frisbie, Founders of The Center for Marriage and Family Studies, will provide the guidance you need to help you move forward.
This compassionate, faith-based book begins by addressing the stages of grieving, including denial, fear, anger, hurt, guilt, depression, letting go, and saying farewell.
Through candid explanations, real-life examples, and thoughtful guidance, Life Interrupted helps readers confront the raw, often messy emotions that follow a loss. It encourages readers to acknowledge their feelings through narrative and prompts and provides space for the reader to process their pain.
Where most books dealing with grief stop, Life Interrupted continues with a section titled "Life Resumed," offering encouragement and insight for moving forward by focusing on four key areas:
- Living in the Present
- Discovering Your Passion
- Planning for Your Future
- Helping Others (Including Children)
Are you spinning in circles, feeling lost and confused? Life Interrupted provides gentle guidance to help stabilize your world, work through grief, and find peace-one step at a time.
