Upon his wife's sudden death, Brad was left a single father of seven children. Life became harder, and the grief almost overwhelming. We all grieve. We lose something or someone we love. And it hurts. Sorrows seem to crash like stormy waves against the boats of our lives. How do we respond to loss? Let alone glorify God in it? In this book, Brad recounts his story in thirty-two short reflections. With a pastor's heart, he charts a course through these waves of grief - applying Bible truths to times of sorrow. This book is not merely a memoir, it's a God-centred travel guide through grief. Its aim: to help you become more like Christ in your sorrows. To glorify God in your grief. In a practical and honest style, this book is an encouraging testimony to how God helps and sustains through times of grief. It also challenges us to consider aspects of grief we may not immediately think of. This book can help us to say: 'It is well with my soul.'
