On losing her husband to lung cancer, Carol Cornish was surprised by the depth and the unique nature of her grief. Drawing on this experience she offers other widows honest, practical and biblical help. Her unswerving belief is that God can bring them - like her - to a place of renewed identity, purpose and contentment. Writing from a biblical perspective, Carol Cornish helps readers to discover how God is working in the midst of the deep distress of losing a spouse. She provides the reader with direction in finding true and lasting comfort in Christ and encourages widows to use their widowhood for God's glory. She equips churches, families and friends to come alongside those mourning the loss of a spouse. The Undistracted Widow helps readers trust in God, manage emotions, learn from both biblical and contemporary widows, rethink the past, present and future, and prepare for what's next. Any woman who is grieving the loss of her husband, or who knows of someone in mourning, will find this to be a valuable resource.
