Centered around Biblical truth, drawing on historical expressions of faith through hymns and poetry, and infused with personal experiences, Bright Hope is for anyone journeying through the lonely shadows caused by grief and toward the light of the gospel of Jesus.
This is exactly the devotional I needed after just losing my second child. I would recommend this book to anyone, even if you haven’t lost a child. It is so encouraging and full of truth, and it helped me to focus my eyes on Jesus and be comforted by His truths from His Word. Amazing book.
As a fellow hope mommy who has said goodbye to 4 littles before I got to say hello, I deeply appreciate Erin's effort in writing this devotional. She has a tender and sweet way of speaking to the heart burdened by grief and calling that heart to remember who God is without expectation of grief being kept in a tidy box or on a predictable timeline. This isn't a "Jesus band-aid" approach to grief and suffering but one that recognizes that emotions are real and raw when the story ends differently than we had imagined. Highly recommend for grieving moms or friends while sincerely desire to walk with their grieving friends in a really hard season.
(5☆ Would recommend & would read again) I read a few books after my miscarriage. To be honest, a lot of the books I read were not helpful. However, this one was. It brought me closer to the arms of Jesus and restored my hope. I highly recommend this book!
This book encouraged me so much! I highly recommend! It validates the grief and your feelings and then lovingly points you to our Savior and the truth of His Word.
