About this Book
In his first book, Dr. Dan Moseley shares a different way of viewing the losses in life. This honest reflection reveals a pastor who, after many years of caring for others as they experienced loss, found he was ill prepared when an intense season of death and loss impacted his life. Dr. Moseley readily admits that loss is hard and is not a respecter of persons. Whether it is the loss of a lover, friend, marriage, dog, job, championship game, house or business, loss will eventually come to everyone. This book encourages readers by:
Navigating them through the journey of loss at their own pace without trying to "fit" their grief into someone else's step-by-step plan.
Pointing them to the space in life that loss creates, allowing room for something new to grow and develop.
Calling them to "go for" the scenic route in life as opposed to searching for the "right route" thus embracing the new life that is taking shape.
About the Author
Dr. Dan Moseley is a Professor of Preaching and Leadership at Christian Theological Seminary in Indianapolis, Indiana. Before entering academia, Dr. Moseley served as a pastor for over thirty years and walked with many individuals through great loss and grief. In 1995, he entered a devastating two year period in which he lost his wife of thirty-one years to cancer, "lost" the daily presence of his daughter to her new marriage, buried his father, changed jobs and moved alone to a new city. As a result, Dr. Moseley left the pastoral ministry to slowly begin to understand this cycle of loss and new life in which he found himself. His personal discoveries and those of friends who have shared their stories with him are found in this book. He holds a Master of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry in Ethics from Vanderbilt Divinity School and has been involved in the development of Grief Healing, Inc.
