Book Description
What happens when your husband dies unexpectedly in the prime of your life and marriage? In Widow’s Might, Kim Knight shares her experience when her husband suddenly and unexpectedly died at fifty-six years old. In one day, Kim went from planning her future with her best friend to planning a funeral, searching for passwords to online accounts, trying to return to normal when things were no longer normal, and finding God in the middle of trauma and grief. Widow’s Might is for young or middle-aged widows and those who love them. The book helps those who’ve experienced a tragic loss to better understand the confusing and unpredictable path of grief as well as the challenges and promise of new growth. Learning to embrace a life different from the one you imagined isn’t something you’re going to master by the end of year one, when your family and friends think you should, or when you hope you might. You can deeply embrace and honor your marriage to your late spouse and still find contentment, happiness, and maybe even love in the days ahead. Widow’s Might will give you the strength and wisdom to discover new life on the other side of death. Look toward what God has in store for you. And—every once in a while—spend the day in your pajamas and eat popcorn for dinner. It’s okay.

The Widows' Might
Author: Vivian Bruce Conger
Publisher: NYU Press
ISBN: 081471711X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
In early American society, one’s identity was determined in large part by gender. The ways in which men and women engaged with their communities were generally not equal: married women fell under the legal control of their husbands, who handled all negotiations with the outside world, as well as many domestic interactions. The death of a husband enabled women to transcend this strict gender divide. Yet, as a widow, a woman occupied a third, liminal gender in early America, performing an unusual mix of male and female roles in both public and private life. With shrewd analysis of widows’ wills as well as prescriptive literature, court appearances, newspaper advertisements, and letters, The Widows’ Might explores how widows were portrayed in early American culture, and how widows themselves responded to their unique role. Using a comparative approach, Vivian Bruce Conger deftly analyzes how widows in colonial Massachusetts, South Carolina, and Maryland navigated their domestic, legal, economic, and community roles in early American society.

The Widow’s “Might”
Author: Debora Roth Brewer
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1796070157
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 157
Book Description
The idea for this book was birthed during a time when several dear souls in our local congregation lost their spouses. Seeing a real need for a Bible-based grief support group, this author asked her pastors and church family to pray that GOD would inspire and help her write a curriculum which would ‘marry’ what happens to the grieving soul physically, emotionally, and spiritually with the restorative power of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Each of the seventeen lessons is designed to be shared within a support group setting where the bereaved will learn that what they are experiencing is not unusual, it is universal to all mankind since the beginning of time. Not only does the grieving reader find out they are not ‘crazy’ or losing their mind, but they are reminded that GOD cares about them as an individual and will speak into their pain His healing word.
