One of the last major stories on the Third Reich that remains largely untold is that of the extraordinary wave of suicides, carried out not just by much of the Nazi leadership, but by thousands of ordinary Germans, in the Second World War's closing period. Some of these were provoked by terror in the face of advancing Soviet troops or by personal guilt, but many could not be explained in such relatively straightforward terms.

When best-selling writer Clare Mackintosh lost her five-week-old son, she searched for help in books. All of them wanted to tell her what she should be feeling and when she should be feeling it, but the truth—as she soon found out—is that there are no neat, labelled stages for grief, or crash grief-diets to relieve us of our pain. What we need when we're grieving is time and understanding. I Promise It Won't Always Hurt Like This is the book she needed then.

We’ve never been more educated and entertained. We have technological tools our parents could only dream of, and we are saturated with information, amusement, and recreation. Yet more than ever, we are starving for hope. After 40 years of counseling and ministry, Max Lucado has learned that nothing lifts the desperate, weary heart like the promises of God.

Most people are terribly unkind to themselves. We make harsh judgements on ourselves, engage in endless self-criticism and are unforgiving of even the smallest of failings. At the same time, we can be loving and kind parents, generous and encouraging friends, and supportive and committed colleagues. We give everyone else our best only to give ourselves our worst.

I didn’t recognize disrespect and had to be clued in to when it was going on in a form too subtle for me to recognize or too bold for me to believe it was what it was.
