Description

Wolterstorff, a well-known Christian philosopher, lost his 25-year-old son to a mountain climbing accident. His reflections in the wake of that tragedy are at times deeply personal, but always he expresses a prayerful anguish with which most bereaved parents will identify. Above all he refuses to turn from the "demonic awfulness" of death and, as he moves faithfully through grief, discovers new meaning in the Beatitudes, together with a new understanding of a suffering God. Spiritually enriching and theologically substantive.

A simple, honest, sharing of the depths of his grief, in ways that will help those who cannot articulate their pain. A book which is a true gift to thsoe who grieve and also those who reach out to comfort those grieving.
