To whatever extent our dreams, expectations, and plans fall short of our reality, there is loss.

Our idealized dream of life may include avoiding abuse and tragedy, marrying once to the right person, having successful careers, having children who mirror our values, and after a long and healthy life, dying peacefully in our sleep.

But life doesn’t always go that way.

Life often includes abuse, divorce, premature death, illness, financial setbacks, and unfulfilled dreams. In each situation, there is loss. And loss may be experienced very differently depending on a person’s background and personality.

Understanding grief and loss, then, may be more complex than you think. This book shows you why and how you can help. It offers a different perspective for people who want to minister to those who are hurting from loss. And along the way, you may learn something about yourself.
