Our society understands how terrible the loss of a child is when that child is out of the womb, but what about when a child dies before birth? Or what about the emptiness that comes when a very-much-wanted child is never even conceived? These quiet, private losses are hard for those who have not experienced them to understand. And these losses leave those who have suffered them feeling alone in their grief. Not Alone: A Literary and Spiritual Companion for Those Confronted with Infertility and Miscarriage is a resource both for those who have suffered through these experiences and for their friends and relatives, who want to understand what their loved ones are going through. This collection contains true stories that are: sensitive, and yet honest angry and raw, but not despairing unique, and yet relatable The contributors to this book are male and female, old and young, some who eventually had children and some who never did, and yet despite their differences, they share a common grief and a common faith. No experience of miscarriage and infertility is like any other, yet by reading these painful and hope-filled stories, you'll be comforted by knowing there are others who understand the journey you're on, the loss you've suffered, and you will find that even though your loss is uniquely yours, you are not alone."

Julie was thirty-seven when she and her husband, Samir, decided to start a family after a year of marriage. What Will Be is the story of how Julie and Samir confronted the challenges of trying to get pregnant, navigating fertility treatments, dealing with constant uncertainty, and came out the other side. Throughout that time, Julie was desperate for advice and empathy from someone who had been there. She scoured message boards on the internet in search of success stories, a tiny ray of hope, anything to keep her going. And she promised herself that if she ever became that success story, she would share her experience on one of those message boards to help other women looking for the same thing. In the end, she decided to take it one step further and write a book about her journey. Millions of women and men in this country struggle with infertility, experience a miscarriage, or have to walk away from the dream of starting a family. Nearly 15 to 20 percent of all pregnancies end in miscarriage in the US. The national fertility rate fell to a record low in 2018 and the New York Times reports that millennial women are having fewer children than they'd like. Fertility issues are something that most people will experience in their lifetimes, yet very few people are empowered to talk about it. For those who are actually living through the challenges of getting pregnant and carrying to term, it's easy to feel like you have no one to turn to and no light at the end of the tunnel. Julie wants others on this path to know they are not alone, which is why her memoir chronicles the raw emotions she experienced day in and day out on her journey to becoming a mother. What Will Be takes readers through every setback and celebration, documenting both the traditional fertility treatments Julie took under the supervision of her doctor, as well as the less traditional, naturopathic supplements and practices she sought out and experimented with. If Julie's story helps even one woman find the courage not to give up, her work here is complete.

What do you want to be when you grow up? The answers were our childhood dreams. The reality of adulthood is that what we are and do now is what we became. Finding Livelihood is a book about work for grown-ups. It's about not just the work we thought we wanted but the work we found and the work that found us. It's also about the work we have lost. At once a shrewd challenge of Buechner's assertion that "the place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet" and also a lyrical journey to the place where labor and love meet, Finding Livelihood explores the tensions between the planned life and the given, between desire and need, between aspirations and limits. Through story, collage, and juxtaposition, Finding Livelihood invites you to consider work in its many facets. Who gets to decide if our work is "good"? How do we deal with forces and routines that leave us longing for escape? How do questions about money and meaning change when you are holding a pink slip in your hand? How are we transformed when our current work becomes part of a spiritual journey that encompasses all of life? Drawing from thinkers as diverse as St. Aquinas, Josef Pieper, and Simone Weil, Nordenson affirms the doctrine of Imago Dei and brings it into the real world of work: a world full of brokenness and hope, of dead-end jobs and live-saving interventions, of daily bread and transcendent meaning. In the midst of it all, we find our livelihood.
