Description

What do you do when the life you planned is no longer the life you're living?


When loss doesn't come with a headline, a funeral, a condolence card, or a casserole?

When you're left wondering if God sees the invisible aches from dreams unraveling and life unfolding in ways you never imagined?

These are all deeply painful, grief-worthy losses.

Yet women hesitate to call these losses grief. We tend to compare our pain to someone else's and decide we should be stronger or over it by now. We may minimize or dismiss our feelings.

In This Isn't the Story I Wanted, therapist, social worker, and speaker Nicole Langman gently reminds you that grief isn't reserved for death alone. Written in short, devotional-style chapters, this book can be picked up whenever you need a moment of encouragement or hope.

With biblical wisdom, tender understanding, and a therapeutic approach, Nicole invites you to name your pain, process your losses, and discover that God is present even in the stories you never would have chosen.

Let yourself reimagine your grief--where the broken ground of your loss can become the very place God grows hope and a new chapter.

"This Isn't the Story I Wanted doesn't rush your healing; it walks you through it. Nicole offers something so many are searching for: real hope--anchored in truth--that with God we can endure and grow through even the hardest things."

--Jenny Warfield, founder of Servant Hearted Sisterhood and author of Unfiltered


"An affecting and empowering reassessment of the narrow ways that society frames loss."
