The Real Deal on Overcoming Heartache: Learning to Live and Love Again

Michelle McKinney Hammond lets you feel OK for being angry, hurt and confused over painful situations when you feel you've been treated unjustly. Then she reminds you to let God fix it as He wills. She doesn't encourage you to dwell in your pain, but gives God the chance to prove His love to you. Not that He has to, but He does ... even when we don't deserve it. Praise the Lord for His grace and His Son. I recommend this book to all my girlfriends.

"New light continually beams from this source of heavenly knowledge, to direct the conduct and illustrate the work of God and the ways of (wo-)man." -- Walter Scott Michelle Hammond fulfills God's promise of enlightening, freeing and healing women by sharing her experiences, discoveries, and insights, laced thoroughly with scripture and sprinkled with modern song fragments. Michelle's writing style is conversational, and easy to read and absorb. The author invites readers to examine our feelings and past with thought-provoking questions in nine sections, ending each chapter with encouragement for effort and progress. Each builds on the next, so reading, thinking and writing in sequence is more productive, but gems and nuggets are found just by dipping. The final chapter helps us put the process into action. What we learn about ourselves and our relationships are a gift from God sent through this author. She chose well her Proverbs for wisdom, Psalms for comfort and numerous others for guidance. Although the author's ministry focuses on single women, this workbook also offers hope to women in troubled marriages. Please accept Michelle's valuable offer of hope NOW to "discover the ability to celebrate Love all over again" and "reach out to the One who holds the answer to YOUR situation." I suggest clergy and counselors check this out as a resource to recommend. Armchair Interviews says: Powerful advice.
