Loss doesn't always announce itself with a funeral. Sometimes it arrives as a half-built dream home, a marriage stretched to its edges, or a hospital room where faith and heartbreak share the same breath.
In Protected by Loss, Dr. LaBentria Ford traces the grief that quietly layered throughout her life - the sudden death of her beloved brother Junior, the slow unraveling of a marriage she had to stop idealizing before she could truly love, and a dream home that collapsed in her hands. Through it all, she held onto her faith - not because it was easy, but because it was the only thing that made sense of the senseless.
This book is for anyone who has ever held grief in one hand and faith in the other and wondered if God was paying attention. Dr. Ford's answer is unflinching: He was. He is. And what felt like loss was protection the whole time.
Protected by Loss is a memoir of becoming - honest, tender, and rooted in the belief that what God allows, He redeems.
