If I Could Mend Your Heart

Book excerpt: * Please note that reviews posted before August 9,2017 are associated with a prior edition and publisher. That edition is no longer available. Years ago, when I was training to become a hospital chaplain, my supervisor offered a startling observation: "You will learn that chaplaincy and the art of caring for another during times of grief have little to do with a job description and everything to do with the interruptions." If I Could Mend Your Heart, is all about life's interruptions - the losses, the endings, the upheavals. It's a little book with a big message about healing and how we show up and support one another in our troubles. Readers will find themselves on a small quiet walk filled with authentic words of inspiration, and loving kindness. The images speak of hospitality of the heart. It's a perfect gift when no words can completely express our care and concern. A gift for a friend or one to keep on the nightstand, If I Could Mend Your Heart promises that sunrise truly does follow midnight.
