If you are considering buying this book, let me be honest with you: It has taken me 26 years to write it. This book began when my father died. I had a nudging in my heart and spirit to tell my story. Like most of us, we start and stop so many things in life. I started and stopped so many times because I was questioning myself. My first thoughts were who would want to listen to it and would anyone buy it. It started with the loss of my dad on January 11, 1995, and that all changed when my mother passed on January 18, 2021.

The American church avoids lament. But lament is a missing, essential component of Christian faith. Lament recognizes struggles and suffering, that the world is not as it ought to be. Lament challenges the status quo and cries out for justice against existing injustices. Soong-Chan Rah's prophetic exposition of the book of Lamentations provides a biblical and theological lens for examining the church's relationship with a suffering world. It critiques our success-centered triumphalism and calls us to repent of our hubris. And it opens up new ways to encounter the other.

Included in the book is a guide to an eight-week bereavement curriculum that can be used in a group or on one’s own.

The 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.

For grievers, helpers, and those wanting to better understand loss, let Faith Doesn’t Erase Grief help you embrace the fullness of grief and discover the first steps toward hope.
