Inhaltsangabe

What do you have to lose?

Twelve years ago, this father lost his son. What followed were two years of pretending — smiling at coworkers, saying his son was "doing great" while his blood pressure spiked with every lie — until one night, alone in his living room, he looked up and screamed at the ceiling, begging for help from a God he wasn't even sure was listening.

Screaming at the Ceiling is the raw, unflinching, and ultimately hopeful account of a father's twelve-year journey through the death of his son, Justin — from the phone call that changed everything, through years of silent performance and hidden pain, and into a peace he never expected to find on the other side of unimaginable grief.

This is not a clinical guide to the stages of grief. It's one father's honest, sometimes uncomfortable, always truthful account of what losing a child actually does to a person — the strange embarrassment, the invisible armor ripped away, the anger at time itself — and the slow, imperfect path that led him back to faith, to peace, and to the belief that he will one day be reunited with his son.

While this book is written through the lens of losing a child, its heart is bigger than one kind of loss. The path back to peace described in these pages — reaching toward faith, allowing yourself to grieve honestly, finding people who understand — applies just as much to anyone grieving a spouse, a parent, or anyone else they've loved and lost. The weight is different. The heaviness isn't the same. But the peace on the other side is reachable the same way, and this book was written for that grief too.

Whether you are a grieving parent yourself, grieving a different kind of loss, or you love someone who is grieving and don't know what to say to them, this book was written for you. It includes a dedicated chapter for the family and friends of the bereaved, ten carefully chosen scripture passages for anyone grieving, a closing prayer, and a full year's worth of daily reflections meant to be read one page at a time, in whatever order you need them.

If you've already survived the worst thing a person can survive, there is very little left that should scare you off from trying something new — even faith. What do you have to lose? And what might you have to gain?
