Perry D. Neare, L.C.S.W. –
My experience as a co-facilitator of a Hope Beyond Today support group was satisfying due to the biblically sound content of the presentation and book guide and the sensitive caring of the grief support process. The practical wording helped the members of the group interact constructively and relevantly with each other, and to manage their own and other people’s unhelpful stereotypes about the grieving journey.
