Hey Friends, just a brief note to let you know that my book, Through Your Tears: Sorrow From Loss, Hope For Healing will be available for .99 Friday - Monday. Many people have expressed how this has helped them in a time of great pain and hurt. It is not a long book, and that is on purpose. People who are struggling with grief cannot sit and read long wordy chapters. But they do seek some consolation. I pray this book is helpful for those who are suffering loss and that it points the way toward healing from this painful wound.
What Others Are Saying
“I didn’t expect to cry today, but I did. There were sad tears of remembrance as I again contemplated the loss of my wife and son all those years ago. There were more sad tears as I remembered John Robert. But there were also tears of joy. Joy that my friend John had the strength and presence of mind to write this beautiful little book. There were also joyful tears in recognition of God bringing me forward to this day. This book will continue to be a blessing.”
Les Ferguson, Jr., author of Still Wrestling: Faith Renewed Through Brokenness
“What a gift this book will be in the hands of someone who has just been ushered onto the journey of excruciating grief. John knows the pain of loss and has used his awareness to help hundreds of broken hearted people learn to carry this heavy weight. John’s words are simple yet profound, deep but practical, soothing and peaceful amidst the chaos following a death. I cannot wait to use this book at our grief center for children and adults. This book holds some keys to walking out grief in the healthiest manner possible. Thank you, John, for writing this book for us.”

“John E. Dobbs has a new book out this week on the subject of grief - Through Your Tears: Sorrow From Loss, Hope for Healing. Knowing John’s writing and the heart he displays I had high hopes for it. Did it meet my expectations? No; it didn’t. It exceeded them. It’s gentle, authentic and full of wisdom. It doesn’t set out to be a book like A Grief Observed (CS Lewis) or A Grace Disguised (Jerry Sittser); it’s practical and compassionate counsel expressed with great tenderness, insight and fellow-feeling. Sometimes it’s hard to know whether to recommend a particular book to those who have experienced loss. Not this time. It won’t overwhelm those struggling in a howling gale. Rather it’s a gentle hand on the shoulder and eyes that weep with those who weep. You can read and pass it to others with confidence and if/when it’s appropriate add those other books into the mix.” - Richard Myerscough, Minister of Pontefract Congregational Church, West Yorkshire, UK.
