Grace Like Scarlett

Grieving with Hope After Miscarriage and Loss

De: Adriel Booker

Narrado por: Moe Egan

Though one in four pregnancies ends in loss, miscarriage is shrouded in such secrecy and stigma that the woman who experiences it often feels deeply isolated, unsure how to process her grief. Her body seems to have betrayed her. Her confidence in the goodness of God is rattled. Her loved ones don't know what to say. Her heart is broken. She may feel guilty, ashamed, angry, depressed, confused, or alone.

With vulnerability and tenderness, Adriel Booker shares her own experience of three consecutive miscarriages, as well as the stories of others. She tackles complex questions about faith and suffering, with sensitivity and clarity, inviting women to a place of grace, honesty, and hope, in the redemptive purposes of God - without offering religious clichés and pat answers. She also shares specific, practical resources, such as ways to help guide children through grief, suggestions for memorializing your baby, and advice on pregnancy after loss, as well as a special section for dads, and loved ones.

Grace Like Scarlett will help you:

• Better understand your grief, and find language to help you talk about your experiences with others.
• Examine the complexities of abstract or disenfranchised grief, and the social or religious pressures that can contribute toward a short-circuited grieving process.
• Dignify your grief experience, and support you in your journey toward healing.
• Examine grief, pain, and suffering from a Christian perspective, by exploring biblical texts, the life of Jesus, and other figures from the Old and New Testaments.
• Help you examine your faith and doubt in the aftermath of your grief, and provide you with a safe space to ask hard questions.
• Help you find ways to honor and remember your baby's life.
• Leave you with practical resources to support healthy relationships with your spouse, children, friends, and church community in the wake of your loss.
