The Journey of Grandparent Alienation & Estrangement - Paperback

by Carolyn Carter (Author)

Find Strength, Peace, and Hope in the Midst of Hurt

Your heart is aching, and you are filled with sadness. You are faced with the reality that the grandPARENTing road in your life is closed. You have been given no choice but to take a detour down a path that is very different from the one you had envisioned. Regrettably, you find yourself on a new journey--a journey down the bumpy road of family alienation and estrangement. You wonder where God is in the midst of all your hurt, you wonder how to repair your broken family, and you wonder how you will ever make your way through the feelings of rejection and hopelessness.

Biblical truths, relevant research, and specific tools and strategies for navigating the heartbreaking journey of family estrangement are explored in this book. Topics addressed include forgiveness, reconciliation, negative emotions, boundaries, family relationships, family dynamics, and more. Words from the Bible provide counsel and offer assurance that God, our source of comfort and strength, is indeed with us and "is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine" (Ephesians 3:20 NIV). Find peace for the present, hope for the future, and know that you are not alone on this journey!
