A Life After Death: The Struggle to Live After the Loss of a Child
Ebook
Overview
How do you schedule a funeral for the sudden death of your three-year-old daughter when you are nine months pregnant? This is one of the many disorienting questions Tristan and Jill faced in the days following their daughter Maria’s death. A Life After Death contains their reflections as they faced the tragedy of death while still embracing life, faith, and hope. It is a love letter for the daughter they lost and for their children who continue to live.
“This is a beautiful work of love and lament. With words that
convey the profound disorientation of loss and a deep trust in a
God whom we can address with our most difficult questions, it is a
portrait of hope, of faithful remembering, and of the ongoing work
of love in the complexities of grief.”
—Aaron D. Cobb, Auburn University at Montgomery
“We live in a broken world. Tristan and Jill’s honest, candid
window into their family’s journey with tragedy reminded me that
God’s redemptive grace can provide healing and hope no matter the
circumstance. I was blessed to read their story, encouraged afresh
to keep trusting Jesus.”
—Brian Farone, District Superintendent, North Central District,
EFCA
