Grief Walking

A loved one dies. Your world is upended. The emotional pain can be intense. Your heart begins asking questions. "Am I going crazy? Am I going to make it? Where is God in all this"? Many of the people around you don't know what to say or do. They utter cliches and platitudes. You need something more than this - far more. You need to know that it's okay to hurt, to be sad, and to grieve. And most of all, you need the comfort of God's presence. You need to experience his compassion and love. You need to know he is walking with you in your pain and grief.

This is a groundless territory where one feels directionless and devoid of tools, with no sense of how to take the next step. In ancient times, elders guided their communities through life's initiations and challenges, paths we must all take to transform and grow. In Walking through Darkness, legendary shamanic experts Sandra Ingerman and Llyn Roberts help us forge a pathway through the dark—as we embrace nature as our guide and healer.

Review "This is a great little book on the place of Lament in the life of a believer, as well as how God uses the difficult times in our lives. Much more than a simple grin and bear it theology, it gets into the nitty gritty and shows that there will be times that we feel that we are almost completely pressed out, and that isn't all bad if we handle it well." - Rocky Woolery "Chapter 6 alone makes the book worth purchasing." - Alistair "I found this to be a very readable and helpful analysis of Psalm 88. Those who in their own life can relate to Heman's words should find help and comfort/...
