Dr. Alan T. \"Blues\" Baker, CEO ChaplainCare and Rear Admiral, Chaplain Corps, US Navy (Retired)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grieving process is part of being human, but far too often, Christian grievers are pushed out of grief and rushed into rejoicing that their loved one is in heaven. Alternately, Christians who allow themselves to grieve openly are shamed for doing so, often resulting in turning away from faith. It is time for a better way to acknowledge that you can struggle with grief and still love God.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLicensed professional counselor and ordained minister Kate Meyer is an experienced, warm, practical guide to walk you through the grieving process. In \u003cem\u003eFaith Doesn't Erase Grief\u003c\/em\u003e, she encourages grievers and shows them how to find hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMeyer blends up-to-date grief psychology, biblical accounts, and everyday experience. She introduces easily understandable phases of Early Grief, Middle Grief, and Lasting Grief, and provides a framework for grievers to build a personalized toolkit to navigate through each phase. She offers a way to acknowledge emotions, ways to take care of yourself just after a loss, and coping skills for the long term. Meyer also discusses the healing idea about the continued but changed bond many grievers experience when their loved one is gone. Each chapter includes a prompt to record what you're experiencing in the grief journey, and the book concludes with a collection of appendices for detailed, step-by-step directions for coping tools, such as psalm writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrief is a difficult but natural part of life. For grievers, those in grief counseling, and pastors and chaplains, let \u003cem\u003eFaith Doesn't Erase Grief\u003c\/em\u003e help you embrace the fullness of grief and discover the first steps toward hope.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-14782463\"\u003eKate J.
