In Invisible Grief, Drew Hensley opens an honest conversation about the pain and loss that comes from unrealized hopes, dreams, and desires. With raw vulnerability, biblical insight, and stories from real people, Drew shines a light on a form of grief that is often overlooked yet deeply felt.

Drew's pastoral wisdom and personal story will assure you that you are not alone, and that in Christ, your grief is never wasted. Discover renewed hope for your weary heart in the pages of Invisible Grief.

Endorsements

Sometimes grief and pain are so deep that we want to run from it. Drew Hensley, in this refreshingly honest and life changing book, says that we should go there anyway. Why is that? That’s because that’s where God meets his people … in the dark places. This is a profound book that changes everything about the places we all lament. Read it and share it with everyone you love!

Drew writes from a place of experience—a trusted guide who has been through the fires of heartache and returned to share wisdom to all who will hear.  Rather than burying the pain of the past, he encourages us to face it fiercely and find the One who walks with us through our darkest valleys.
