A daughter dies, a husband is murdered, a son commits suicide, a brother is diagnosed with terminal cancer . . . When tragedy crashes into life, we may be buoyed by the love of family and friends, but we will never truly heal until we make peace with the crisis, relinquishing its stranglehold on our capacity to move forward. For many, this is a journey of faith, an opportunity to forge a new, perhaps deeper relationship with Spirit. Here are the journeys of 14 women of vastly different religious traditions, and how they came to weather their personal storm. No two are alike, yet they all share a path of healing, of stepping slowly back into wholeness and joy after suffering nearly unimaginable loss. May this book be a simple life raft to those of you who suffer, an encouraging gift to help you hang on, to keep you moving until you, too, find peace. You are not alone; others have been there too. If they can make it, so can you. We promise.
