About
When you experience a loss that changes everything, grief is only the beginning. Mourning for the life you once knew is a long and important process--but where do you go from there? Rebecca Hayford Bauer's loss was the death of her husband in 2003, but we all face loss of one kind or another. In Life After Grief, she shares her personal story of loss, grief and healing, and invites you to walk with her into the hope and uncertainty of new life. Each chapter asks one important question every grieving person faces on the road to healing, such as:
• How do I view God?
• Will I still trust?
• Who am I now?
• Who are my friends?
• Will I dream again?
Your life will never be the same . . . but there is still life to be lived. You can learn to live your new normal, grasping God's hand for dear life and trusting Him to guide you into the future.

It is with practical as well as personal joy that I witness the publication of Rebecca Bauer's Life Beyond Grief--foremost, because it unfolds a practical pathway of hope and comfort which will bring healing to any who grieve the passing of a loved one. And personally, it is meaning-filled because I observed the author living through the sudden loss of her husband. More than an intense story, here is the graciously sensitive, comforting and spiritually discerning outcome; it frames a work which my pastoral sense tells me will become a source of stabilizing hope born of God-given wisdom.

These pages are full of surprising lessons, wisdom and the deeper understanding of God's care and promises she learned during the loss of her husband Scott. In whatever way loss comes and 'life never looks the same again,' the reader will gain strength for the journey, hope and fresh vitality to once again flourish in life.
