When Roger W. Haserot lost his wife after forty-eight years of marriage, he didn't know where to turn to find stability. How could he move forward with life when death was so confounding? He began journaling to make sense of the grieving process as he struggled through it, gradually expanding and deepening these thoughts into structured essays. When he shared his writings with friends, they encouraged him to compile his work into a book and share it with others facing their own losses.
In his book, Haserot wrestles with the unimaginableness of death by leading his readers through his own story, discussing the stages of grief, and exploring the concept of death from a biblical standpoint. He explains his own realization that you can't simply return to life as it was before the loss-you must reinvent yourself and your daily experience in order to continue forward. Ultimately, he shares the hope he reclaimed on his journey to rediscover his life of joy in Christ.
Death Is Incomprehensible is an encouraging and immersive glimpse into the grieving process and the gradual rebuilding of faith and happiness. Haserot's message is clear: there is life again after a loved one's death.
