Take Courage!

The Take Courage Journal is a companion book to Take Courage! Growing Stronger after Losing Your Spouse. It provides a place to organize notes and reflections about the reader's grief journey.

As you record your study notes, meeting notes, group notes, and further reflections in this book, you will find that your insight and understanding will continue to progress and expand. The benefit of journaling in this companion book is cumulative. As one thought builds upon another, it will lead to further observation, contemplation, and reflection.

The nine international authors of Take Courage! were all widowed. God prepared them to walk this grief journey together and then help other widowed people with the lessons they have learned and the comfort they have received from God along the way.

We hope that this journal will help you along your road to a new life. There are brighter days ahead as you walk together with a healing community through this book study. These authors can personally attest that by doing so, you too will receive God's healing.
