Summary
This year-long devotional invites you into simple, everyday practices and Scriptural truths to bring you hope in the midst of suffering and loss.
“A stunning resource for anyone with fresh or lingering grief who doesn’t feel like they can even lift their head some days. This beautiful, everyday read has nourished my soul.”—Lisa Whittle, speaker, podcast host, and bestselling author of The Hard Good
Whether your sorrow is recent, you’ve long felt the pain of a loved one’s absence, or you’re lamenting a difficult situation, this book is an honest companion, offering validation for the hard days and support through the psychological stages of grief.
Author Mattie Jackson draws from her experience of grieving the sudden death of her young husband to walk with you from a place of heartache to one of healing and peace. Each devotion provides a daily reminder that God is near to the brokenhearted, His mercies are never-ending, and He can be trusted. Along with helpful reflection questions and gentle prayers, the entries show you how to engage four essential practices on your journey:
• Wail for what you’ve lost to overcome feelings of denial.
• Connect with the world around you to defend against isolation.
• Worship with honesty to push away bitterness and doubt.
• Hope for your future to guide you through despair and toward acceptance.
These devotions honor our human fragility and direct us to the God who helps us navigate our pain and restores our hearts. There are tears to be shed and is hope to be found even here in the valley.
Critic reviews
“A stunning resource for anyone with fresh or lingering grief who doesn’t feel like they can even lift their head some days, let alone read something heavy. Mattie Jackson ministers so specifically in Through the Valley of Grief because she has been the person on the other side of the page. Five years after burying my father, this beautiful, everyday read has nourished my soul.”—Lisa Whittle, speaker, podcast host, and bestselling author of The Hard Good
“Mattie Jackson comes alongside the hurting as a trusted friend. She gives us reminders that no matter how dark the season of our pain may be, we’re never alone or without hope. Yes, the valley is scary, but it must be traversed to find healing on the other side. And when you can’t see the next step, you’ll feel Mattie’s hand and hear her voice each day saying, ‘I’ve walked here, it’s safe.’”—W. Lee Warren, MD, award-winning author of Hope Is the First Dose and host of The Dr. Lee Warren Podcast
“Alan and I have watched our daughter Mattie walk through the valley of grief and emerge a radiant overcomer. In Through the Valley of Grief, Mattie offers a daily dose of hope for those like her who are struggling with loss and suffering. Each scripture-rich page will draw you back to Jesus—who is our living hope and ultimately to His grace and love that will sustain us through every valley.”—Denise Jackson, New York Times bestselling author of It’s All About Him
