Description
Are you or someone you love a widow? In this book, philosopher and writer Ronda Chervin offers widows a practical spiritual path that can help them attain hope and faith in God's love and provision.
Using the stories of women saints who suffered the loss of a husband, she encourages and affirms women in their new state in life while leading them on the journey to healing and interior joy. Drawing from the themes of the Stations of the Cross, Dr. Chervin ties the sufferings of widowhood with the Passion of the Savior in a way that is both beautiful and healing. Quotes from Scripture and the saints, and prayers to help you turn your heart toward the Lord and His mother, offer consolation and hope.
"I was especially edified by Ronda's writings. A widow herself, Ronda candidly shared her own struggle with widowhood and the challenges it presents. She told the stories of several holy women who became icons of triumph for me... each of them had learned a great lesson, a heavenly secret, a pearl of great price: they discovered how to make widowhood a pilgrim way to God, a path leading to sanctity and holiness, a sojourn into the abundant life of Jesus Christ." -Johnnette Benkovic Williams
