Summary
Details

"We long to make sense of the suffering. A diagnosis. A death. Traumatic loss. A wandering child. Unending loneliness. Divorce. Unexpected job loss. Unfilled dreams and desires. But what if we didn't try to make sense of it? What if we went beyond asking why and instead saw pain and suffering as an invitation to more of God and allowed ourselves to feel? In her book, Lea encourages readers to view pain and suffering as an invitation to connect with God rather than a problem to be solved. She shares her own journey of grief, revealing that there is no formula for coping with loss but rather an opportunity to embrace emotions and find comfort in a God who understands. ""The Freedom to Feel"" is not a how-to guide on suffering but rather a comforting companion for those who are grieving. The book gently guides readers to embrace their pain with kindness, express their feelings to God, find hope in His promises, and learn to hold space for each other's pain and suffering. This book is for grieving people and those who long to support them better."
