Soul Search: Finding Grace through Grief

For Diane Ranker Riesen's fifth book, she has compiled over 200 works of poetry to encourage and aid those who may be grieving and in need of guidance. Riesen lost her grandmother at eleven-years-old and had no other living grandparents. She lost her mother at 53, her father at 59, her sister at 42, her nephew at 31, and has three babies waiting for her in Heaven.

She wishes for the poems within Soul Search to be helpful to those who are going through a difficult stage of loss and hopes her strength in God will be theirs as well.
