braving sorrow together -- a book review

Ashleigh Slater's Braving Sorrow Together:  The Transformative Power of Faith and Community When Life is Hard is a word fitly spoken in a world where the cultural motto now is "Me, too".  Here, Slater gives us a spate of shared stories, and some personal wisdom gleaned from community experiences, about the power of faith and community when dealing with difficult issues pertaining to jobs, health, relationships, laying down dreams and so much more.

All of us have stories of loss, and Slater's beautiful book reminds us that God is able to transform that loss into something new, something evangelical, within the community of those who have learned the stories of loss to be stories of resurrection, too.

Braving Sorrow Together weaves together Scripture, personal stories, practical thoughts, and guest entries to comfort the suffering and encourage hopeful grieving.  This is a must-read and -share book.
