Grace Like Scarlett
Author: Adriel Booker
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1493414119
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
Though one in four pregnancies ends in loss, miscarriage is shrouded in such secrecy and stigma that the woman who experiences it often feels deeply isolated, unsure how to process her grief. Her body seems to have betrayed her. Her confidence in the goodness of God is rattled. Her loved ones don't know what to say. Her heart is broken. She may feel guilty, ashamed, angry, depressed, confused, or alone. With vulnerability and tenderness, Adriel Booker shares her own experience of three consecutive miscarriages, as well as the stories of others. She tackles complex questions about faith and suffering with sensitivity and clarity, inviting women to a place of grace, honesty, and hope in the redemptive purposes of God without offering religious clichés and pat answers. She also shares specific, practical resources, such as ways to help guide children through grief, suggestions for memorializing your baby, and advice on pregnancy after loss, as well as a special section for dads and loved ones.

Pages : 184
Book Description
This book is for those who are not yet married and for those who are married and have contemplated an affair. Marriage used to be the reward we sought after graduation. Now, unless we choose carefully, it is more than likely to be a punishment. No matter how carefully one chooses his affairee, the outcome is more often punishment than reward. Whatever way you choose, go slowly. Keep in mind that being single is not so bad and is becoming more popular. That initial fondness or statement of love is no guarantee of long term survival. Being happy and single is a lot easier than being locked into a miserable relationship.
