Highlighted Reviews: 'Truly an outstanding resource of healing and fresh hope for the brokenhearted. Pages packed with the words of the Lord, words of the brethren, and words of those whove lived the private details of this sorrow and have accessed the enabling power of Jesus Christs atonement. A trustworthy tool for Mission Presidents, local leaders, family and friends to learn from, and to give to the early returned missionaries they love and care about. An inspired compilation.''The resource we needed in hand when we first felt dizzy with logistical details, yet one that will be read and re-read for fresh hope and healing in the years that follow. Sound gospel principles and practicalities for the missionaries themselves, their families and their leaders. An outstanding compilation of scriptures, words of the brethren, and words of those whove lived through it. A much needed resource.''If youve recently come home early from an LDS mission, or know someone who has and wish to know more about what they must be feeling right now, this book is for you. Its very personal and written directly to the missionary, empathizing with their current situation with stories and advice from other early returned missionaries who came home for a variety of reasons and made it through. Family and friends are critical elements to a missionarys healing process, so if your missionary seems distant and youre struggling to empathize with them, wondering what to say and what not to say, I recommend this book as a guide. Because it speaks directly to the missionary one-on-one, by reading it you can get a fuller sense of some of the struggles and heartaches they are experiencing. Short guides are also included at the end for parents, bishops/stake presidents, ward councils and even mission presidents with helpful advice on how to best assist the missionary. The entire book is very well thought out and filled with experiences and lessons from real people who once felt beat down and defeated, but kept standing up again and again until they gained back their strength. Their experiences are a guiding hand for missionaries who feel like all hope is lost, because its not.'
