3Do you feel devastated by the loss of a loved one? Does it seem like you will never have peace again? Up from the Valley uses personal testimony and biblical references to give guidance for men through the grieving process. Most men are "do it yourselfers" and are overly self-reliant. A battle with grief is a two man job at least. And with wisdom and understanding, leveraging a relationship with God, the Father; the Son; and the Holy Spirit will help you avoid the pitfalls associated with grief. Up from the Valley will encourage you to think differently about mourning and how you grieve. You will learn about the peace that God gives; in addition, strategies to overcome sadness and despair.
