Official synopsis Publisher
Pastoral counselor J. Bill Ratliff shows that facing change in our lives doesn’t have to be a traumatic experience–it can be a time of enlightenment. Ratliff describes the types of chosen and unchosen changes one is likely to encounter in life and then tells how to deal with endings, uncertainties, and new beginnings. If we listen for the voice of God, Ratliff says, we can emerge from a time of major change more whole than we were before we entered.
