But it will change.Grief can be overwhelming, and it is especially intense during the holidays–those weeks that have always been spent in preparation and anticipation with a loved one who has been lost. While the world seems to be moving forward and celebrating life, grievers face a season of darkness and loss.For you–or as gift for someone you know who is grieving–Harold Ivan Smith guides the reader beyond the darkness with illustrations and insights that emphasize God’s ability to transform the holidays into a time of grace and healing
