Synopsis: “Why do bad things happen?” “God, I don’t understand!” Heartbreak and loss happen to us all. On New Year’s Day, at the age of thirty-seven, Karen Jensen’s husband died suddenly in his bed, leaving her alone to raise two grieving boys and pastor a bewildered congregation. Despite her strong faith and love for God, she had some serious questions. Has tragedy shaken the foundation of your life? Have you been blindsided by an event you never expected to face? What should we do when we’re going through the dark places in life? …when we’ve lost everything? …when we’re in pain? …when we’re wondering why? With a mix of sharp insight and warm optimism, Karen skillfully combines experience and scripture to guide you through the land mines of doubt and confusion that come with loss. She then provides solid principles for moving forward past the pain and into a brighter future.
