When someone whom we cared about is suddenly gone from our lives, it can be devastating. The grieving process can stretch over several months. Here is a tested and proven resource for those who need a daily companion during such a time of loss. The author provides daily readings for sixteen weeks following the loss of a "significant other." The promises of God in Jesus Christ are central in each message.

My wife and I found this book most helpful when we were struggling with our grief following the lightning bolt death of our 25-year-old son. We found The Lonely House to be a source of real comfort.
