Breakups, divorce, separation. These are issues that are far too common in our society. There is deep pain associated with these issues as well. Many times, the deep pain comes with a lack of recognizing it. Rationalization, blame and lack of grieving properly are all accelerants for deeper wounds.
Largely in our society the pain associated with this type of loss gets ignored, brushed aside or simply negated. Yet, science proves that such a loss can affect a person as much as a death. This makes sense because the relationship dies and the people we loved the most walk out on us forever.
Mark Karris in his book Season of Heartbreak refuses to ignore the pain that comes with breakups, divorce and separation. In fact, he tackles the issue head on and helps people understand the deep woundedness within and gives great steps in how to be healed from these wounds.
Mark deals with grief in a Biblical and practical manner. I would venture to say that he deals with grief in the healthiest way possible and this way of grieving has implications for any and all losses that plague us today.
One of the most important truths in this book that Mark covers in great detail is being completely honest with God, others and yourself about your pain yes, but also about your inner issues. Honesty, Mark shares is one of the healthiest ways to move from pain to health.
The church doesn't always do well with pain and grief and Mark recognizes that, so he wrote this book. He not only explains the problem, nor that there is healing but then ends the book with several practical ways we can practice the grieving process.
No matter what you lost, whether its a relationship and person or a job, this book is a practical tool for the healing the Lord has for each and everyone of us. I encourage you to pick up this book and see how grief can lead us to healing.
