Description
"It is not always true that a grief shared is halved. Sometimes it can be doubled or quadrupled. But as Michael Newman shows, with understated eloquence but overarching brilliance, the “eight gifts” of grief work show us not how to subdue the pain of heartbreak but to lean on God’s heart and draw from God’s grace in the most difficult of times. Newman comforts and confirms at the same time: only Jesus can turn life’s floods of tears into baths of resuscitation and spas of restoration."
