Comfort for Those Who Grieve (November 2026)

There’s no right or wrong way to grieve, and no timeline on grief. If your world has been shattered by the passing of a loved one or by another type of loss, you’re not alone in your deep sorrow. You belong to a community of those who have traveled—and are traveling—a similar difficult journey. At the same time, your path is a unique one, which you will follow in your own time and way.

Award-wining author Laura Walker wrote this honest, moving, and healing book after losing several loved ones in short succession, which left her the last one standing from her original family of six. “It's a strange, bereft feeling being the last one left—the sole keeper of the memories," she says. "Writing through my pain and loss, I hope my journey and reflections will minister to others who are grieving.”

With compassion and transparency, Walker decries easy platitudes about loss and the concept of “closure.” She gently travels with you through the grief process, sharing words of comfort and insight through personal reminiscences and storytelling, timeless quotes, classic poems, prayers, and Scriptures that have supported her in her own grief and brought her peace. 

In a beautifully restorative way, Comfort for Those Who Grieve provides understanding, encouragement, and a shoulder to lean on while offering considerate ways to minister to others who have suffered a loss, bringing solace and hope to the brokenhearted.
