The good news is, my e-book “From Grief to New Purpose” is complete (at least until l edit it for the umpteenth time). This baby has been two years in the making, and I am so stoked to have finished it! It is 178 pages, very readable, and it conveys the Christian reader from the initial shock and numbness after loss of your spouse, through the emotional roller coaster, the depression of loss of identity, then the glimpse of hope, the discovery of new purpose for your life, and becoming a wiser, deeper, more mature person on the other side, while still honoring the memory of your spouse.
I wish I had this book as I navigated my own journey with grief, after losing my dear first wife Leni to cancer. It would have made the journey so much less confusing, and so much more purposeful.
The frustration of this week has been this: I have links in the extensive table of contents, which take the reader straight to the section they want to read. I also added page numbers, for those who prefer navigating that way. I wrote this book in Google docs, and the links work perfectly in that format. When I turn the book into a pdf, though, the links appear to stop working. This really messed me up.
Then I discovered, when I look at the pdf in the windows environment, the links actually do work. And if I use a pdf reader, they work. It appears it may be a problem with the current iteration of the Google Chrome ecosystem. In which case I hope it will soon be fixed.
So I am going to upload the book into my marketing platform Systeme.io, and test it there. Hopefully all will be well. These two years have been one long learning curve, but I look forward to getting this much-needed book into your hands!
I love you all, thank you for your support along this journey!
Today is Pentecost, the day the early church was empowered to burst forth on the world stage! I pray that God will use this book to help you too, along your personal journey towards God's new future for you.
Sincerely,
