This book's title will start the helping process. Grieving souls will open their eyes hopefully when they see graphic acknowledgment that holidays are rough times after loss. Susan and Robert write from their first-hand experience, offering help and hope for all who face the holidays anxiously because a special loved one is absent. Pastors should read this book. It will modify their preaching and become a valued gift to struggling recoverers. --James R. Kok, director, International Conference on Care and Kindness The metaphor of a raging fire aptly describes the feelings of grief after a death. The authors carry the metaphor throug hthe phases of grief effectively and it will be a useful tool for the bereaved. The action suggestions are quite helpful and provide a concrete focus by which the griever can address aspects of the holidays. The meditations at the end of chapters act as a healing balm. --Dr. John Morgan, director of King's College Centre for Education about Death and BereavementI have observed literally hundreds of families experiencing the intense wound of grief during the holidays, many from a distance and some painfully close. The authors impart a wisdom found not only in their intellects but captured in the priceless experiences of their hearts. --Martin L. Hollebeek, past president, Michigan Funeral Directors Association In The Empty Chair, I found the approach to the subject of facing "special times" without a loved one refreshing and very helpful. The organization of the chapters byintroduction, action, reflection, and prayer was a unique and useful way to assist in managing one's grief during a very difficult time. The authors have created a book that will help guide grieving persons through this terrible ordeal. I also found the appendix regarding a Candle Lighting Memorial very helpful.--Ron E. Wilder, president, Association for Death Education and Counseling

  • The Empty Chair--dealing with holidays when you are grieving the loss of a loved one

    A very small, easy read; sort of a daily companion of comforting ideas, with Bible verses as well as 'counseling', very helpful, I've bough 8 (one for each member of my church's bereavement group). Another excellent book--on the similar topic is Decembered Grief, which can be purchased with or without an accompanying journal book. Highly recommend for those in need.

  • I love this book!

    I lost my wife of 23 years to a sudden illness. I joined a grief recovery group called GriefShare. The authors of this book are two of the many grief experts on the group videos. They are the authorities on grieving the death of a spouse. This book is so handy to use in the group, it offers each chapter in three parts, with scripture and prayers so comforting to Christians. At the end is a memorial candle lighting ceremony that will bring tears and sooth the soul at the same time.

  • Great book!

    Excellent book on loss of a loved one. Not a lot of pages but easy and valuable reading.
