Synopsis

"Have you ever found yourself tongue-tied when encountering someone suffering, dying, or having just lost someone close, and reduced to the cliche, I really don t know what to say ? Well, people of faith should have something to say at those sacred, delicate moments. Father Kempf, with grace and sensitivity, helps us learn what to say and do in moments when our people long for a word of hope and consolation." --- Most Reverend Timothy M. Dolan, Archbishop of New York, author of Priests for the Third Millennium (Our Sunday Visitor)

"In No One Cries the Wrong Way, Fr. Joe Kempf offers treasures from his lifetime experience
as both a priest and fellow traveler in the geography of human loss. His own reflections are interwoven with insights from psychology, theology, Scripture, and literature, and are illustrated with engaging stories. Consoling in a way that is both simple and profound, Fr. Kempf helps us trust the Love in the midst of the pain." --- Pat Livingston, speaker, author of Lessons of the Heart (Ava Maria Press) and This Blessed Mess: Finding Hope Amidst Life's Chaos (Sorin Books)
