by Frank M. Hasel (Author), Nicholas Wolterstorff (Foreword by)
Love Is! is more than just one man's story--it is an invitation to every heart that grieves the loss of a loved one. When Frank Hasel lost the love of his life, everything turned upside down and he was thrust into a world of aching absence and unexpected responsibilities as a young widower and father of three. In these pages, he shares his raw, honest journey through grief as a fellow traveler.
This book is not a manual--it is a companion. Frank's reflections do not offer easy answers, but they do offer something deeper: hope, presence, and a powerful reminder that while death may take a loved one, it cannot take the love others carry for them. Love Is! explores how grief and grace can coexist and how gratitude can grow even in the darkest seasons.
Whether readers are grieving a lost "heart hero"--someone whose love shaped their world--or simply want to understand how to offer real, "helpful help" in times of loss, this book speaks to the human journey of holding on and letting go.
