Grief is indeed a journey, yeah? For me, it’s taken over 20 plus years to even begin to really tend to my grief and to process it at a level where true healing can begin. Writing my forthcoming book Can You Just Sit With Me has been such an integral part of processing a succession of losses I’ve experienced over the years. From losing loved ones to processing living losses such as a career change.
I’ve immersed myself in so many books including the Bible, which has been my anchor of Hope. But today, I wanted to share a list of my top 10 grief books. All books I have personally read that have impacted me the most in navigating through grief from a Christian faith perspective. Use this list for yourself or for holiday gifting.
