Summary

Lysa TerKeurst is back for the *5th* time today, and we’re going to talk about how to walk through a season full of more loss than beauty. Her brand new book, Surviving An Unwanted Divorce releases tomorrow, and this book is such a helpful tool for those of you walking through a divorce or those of you that want to know how to help someone who is. Whether you know you’re about to enter a winter season or one is thrust upon you, figuring out how to navigate the trauma, grief, and healing can be so overwhelming and Lysa’s experience and wisdom is SUCH a gift. I think this is one of those episodes you’re going to want to text to a friend. If you’re following along in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we’re on page 121. The date is different because we moved this one up, but the question is there for you. The guidebook is available for you at anniefdowns.com/seasons!

0:20.0	I cannot believe we are coming to the end of our seasons year. But today on the show, we're answering a question, what if I see more death than beauty this fall? If you or one of your friends has found themselves walking through a divorce on the other side of divorce, or you just want to know how to minister to and care for someone who is walking through a divorce on the other side of divorce, or you just want to know how to minister
