Lemons on Friday

Three weeks before her first wedding anniversary, Mattie Jackson Selecman lost her husband to a traumatic brain injury. Nothing had ever shattered her faith so dramatically. Nothing had ever caused her to question her beliefs or her own identity so deeply. Nothing would transform her so completely. In Lemons on Friday, Mattie offers hope, understanding, and biblical encouragement as you navigate the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or the life you dreamed of living. As she leads you through the chaos and confusion, Mattie invites you to be honest about your anger and pain, trust that renewal is possible, learn the power of lament, realize that joy and sorrow can exist together, ask the hard questions about faith, God, and prayer Lemons on Friday is not a book of solutions, how-to ideas, or spiritual clichés. It's a raw, honest journey through your doubts, your questions, and your tears, guided by one who has been where you are. It's a beacon telling us that the God of all comfort can bring peace-even when questions remain unanswered-and. above all, hope even in the pain. Book jacket.
