Product Description
by Alvin Johnson (Author), Robert K. Myers (Foreword by)
In Grief Set Free, Alvin Johnson, father, husband, Episcopal priest, explores the shattered fragments of his own soul, a soul crushed by grief following the death of his son Nicholas at age seven. Fr. Johnson asks readers to explore the many pathways of human suffering, sorrow, and restoration. No area of inquiry is off limits as Fr. Johnson plows into the substantial questions of life and faith. In an impatient world with a low threshold for pain, Grief Set Free takes us on a courageous ride through the desperate world of the valley of the shadow of death and towards a life of wild hope and sustaining joy.
