Orlando, Florida – November 19, 2024 – Out of the thousands of books that are published each year, only a select few rise to the level of being able to change a reader’s life. Overcoming the Overcast: Navigating the Storms of Grief with God by Dr. Amanda McNeil is just such a book. This book is for Christians looking to process personal loss and explore a biblical foundation of understanding God’s character toward us through difficulties.
The author writes from her experience in church ministry and in counseling, fusing personal experiences, mental health principles, and biblical principles throughout. When grief overtakes one’s life like an unexpected storm, platitudes and well-meaning advice can feel like salt in an open wound. Loss doesn’t just break one’s heart – it can shatter one’s faith, leaving them drowning in questions about God’s goodness and wondering if healing after grief is even possible.
But what if there was a path through grief that led to more than just survival? What if understanding God’s perspective on death, Heaven, and healing could transform one’s pain into profound hope? As both a Christian grief counseling expert and someone who has walked through the valley of loss herself, Dr. Amanda McNeil offers something radically different from traditional grief and loss healing guides.
Drawing from groundbreaking neuroscience research and deep biblical wisdom, this powerful book reveals:
This isn’t just another Christian book about grief or a collection of quick fixes. It’s a compassionate roadmap for processing one’s loss while holding both profound pain and authentic hope. Whether you’re in the raw aftermath of bereavement, feeling stuck in your grief healing process, or walking alongside someone who is grieving, Overcoming the Overcast offers a grace-filled path toward genuine healing.
Readers will gain vision for how to navigate storms of grief with hope knowing that God companions with us through the storms and that we can break through the storm. The storm of grief may feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. Overcoming the Overcast offers a grace-filled path toward genuine healing—one that honors one’s pain while holding onto hope.
Reader Testimonials always tell the story. Take a look at what Cliff Hurndon, Ph.D., FL, Licensed Psychologist, had to say, “Dr. McNeil’s book skillfully addresses the deep complementary relationship between psychology and Christian belief in her exploration of the universal human experience of grief. Her writing does not present simple tidy explanations. Rather, she challenges her readers to thoughtfully process their own experiences with intentionality, while suggesting with hope that the grieving process has meaning as a gift from a good Father.”
Matthew Sanjari, a Verified Purchase, left these comments, “It’s one thing to read a book with great concepts and theories, it’s another to read someone’s lived experiences and place yourself in the authors story. Amanda does an incredible job of framing her journey, one with moments of pain and grief, as an inspiration and beacon of hope for all of us going through the inevitable process of grief. A necessary tool for anyone looking to gain insight in advance or navigate tough times.”
