How We Can Suffer Our Sorrow

It takes courage to grieve and feel the wrath of sorrow. While beautifully framed in scripture and peppered with church history, personal life encounters, and everyday experiences, this well-crafted toolkit still leaves plenty of room for personal devotion and reflective questions. — Rev. Dr. Regina H. Moore, Executive Minister, South Carolina Christian Action Council

This book will give all who grieve a place to breathe, not only in the illuminating spiritual content it contains but in the beautifully written prose itself. — Deacon James Keating, Ph.D., Director of Theological Formation, Institute for Priestly Formation, Creighton University

Sister Pam Smith has a unique ability to help the reader make sense of the difficulties of everyday life, using the optics of faith and our religious tradition. — John C. Kemper, P.S.S., former Provincial Superior, Society of St. Sulpice, Province of the U.S.

This is a book that needed to be written. Those who know Sister Pam as a poet will recognize her exquisite cadences and crisp, direct style. Those who admire her as a careful, insightful, spiritual thinker will also be glad for these reflections. — Alice Camille, Scripture commentator and award-winning columnist
