Do you ever worry about saying the right thing to someone who is hurting? Do you feel inadequate to help others? Overwhelmed by the magnitude of someone else's challenges? Death, disability, divorce, infertility, kids who go astray, addiction, miscarriage, unemployment, mental illness, sickness, not having opportunity to marry, trauma, addiction... these are a few of the many challenges that cause great emotional pain during our sojourn here on earth. We want to minister. We want to bear one another's burdens to make them light. We want to reach out, support, and mourn with those who are in grief. We long to comfort those who are in need of comfort. We know that by doing these things, we stand as witnesses of God's love and His awareness of us. Our willingness is there but our feelings of inadequacy can, at times, grip us and cause us to feel an inability to reach out or to feel that our efforts are ineffective. This book will consider the emotional impact of life's challenges. It will assist you in gaining insight into your own experience as well as the skills necessary to minister to others. While the effective offering of support will not remove the pain, it can lighten the burden and facilitate growth and unity among the members of our wards and in our own marriages, families, and communities, as together we move ... From Heartache to Hope.
