When a parent buries a child, the world demands healing--but what if healing isn't the goal? Sacred Rage: Love That Didn't Die with Them is a raw, tender, and theologically grounded journey through grief that refuses to be sanitized. Written by a grieving father and hospital chaplain, this book doesn't offer easy answers or tidy timelines. Instead, it creates space for lament, for honest anger, and for a sacred kind of rage that honors love too fierce to forget. Blending personal testimony with spiritual reflection, Damien W. D. Davis invites readers into a compassionate dialogue with sorrow. With every page, he affirms grief is not faithlessness, and crying out to God is not weakness--it is worship in its rawest form. For parents, pastors, chaplains, and anyone navigating loss, this book is a companion on sacred ground, where pain is not erased but dignified. Whether readers' loss is fresh or decades old, Sacred Rage offers breath, language, and hope--without pressure to move on, only the invitation to move forward.
