About this ebook
A terrifying sense of powerlessness overwhelms us when we lose a loved one. As Christians, we mourn like anyone else. And yet, however deep our sorrow may be, our faith, hope, and love are stronger than death. The passing of a loved one is not the end, we believe, but a step toward the Resurrection. The authors lend words of wisdom intended to help show you the way. In the midst of our grief, we look forward to the Resurrection of Christ, who is the lamp that lights our path (cf. Psalm 119:105) and dispels our fear. This five-chapter book focuses on themes originally published as individual titles in our Catholic Perspectives CareNotes series.
