Book description
What happens when buried grief rises two decades late, upending the life you've built on its coffin? When your old grief seems inappropriate, and your heart wrestles with grief upon grief as you move too many times and lose too many friendships? How do you recover from a devastated marriage, a crushed faith, and an endlessly broken heart?This is the crux of Marilyn Kriete's crisis. After losing her first great love to cancer, she becomes a Christian, marries Henry, and joins him in a hectic worldwide ministry that leaves little room for personal reflection. When her old grief unexpectedly resurfaces, she's shocked by the tsunami that rips through their lives. And when intensive counselling fails to bring healing and Henry pens a letter that decimates their churches and spins them out of the fellowship, her battered heart is tested beyond imagination. Exploring delayed and complicated grief in its many disguises-dashed dreams, disenchantment, family troubles, and the guilt of being a former faith leader, now grappling with depression and dismay-Marilyn candidly shares her long journey back to wholeness.
