I get two to four requests a day for a book endorsement and I must refuse most of them, but everywhere I open this book there is wisdom--and hard-won wisdom--plus the need is so urgent and so widespread! So I want to go on record in support of Dale Brown's fine book. I know its truth from years of working with men. -- Fr.Richard Rohr, author of Falling Upward: A Spirituality for the Two Halves of Life Dr. Dale Brown has created one of the finest resources I have ever seen for men wandering through the pain and grief of divorce. He writes with a depth borne of his own experience that proves to be both therapeutic and inspirational. He invites you to join him on a journey of recovery and hope! -- Dr. Dowell Loftis, Director of the Connections Team, Baptist General Convention of Texas In Daily Survival Guide for Divorced MenDale Brown has written a book that challenges, inspires, and comforts men who have experienced divorce--and other losses--and are confronting the pain of it. As a hospice chaplain, Brown is acquainted with loss. Even more, he has experienced the deep pain of divorce himself and he writes out of the wellspring of experience. God is for us. Jesus is the healer. The Holy Spirit is the comforter, helper, and one who comes alongside. This devotional speaks directly to wounded men and walks with them on a daily journey to healing, wholeness, and forgiveness. -- Dr. Everett L. Worthington, Jr., author of Forgiving and Reconciling: Bridges to Wholeness and Hope; Professor of Psychology, Virginia Commonwealth University There is no better teacher than experience. Dale has walked through the pain of divorce which allows him to not only relate but provide relevant help to other men walking through divorce themselves. This workbook helps other men with practical, powerful principles Dale has learned and applied first-hand. I recommend this material without reservation and can't wait to see how God will use this in the lives of men who need to know that a valley in life is not a dead-end road but simply a pathway to a life of joy and fulfillment. -- Dr. Micah Davidson, Lead Pastor, Real Life Church, Austin, Texas Dale Brown is uniquely qualified to write this book for divorced men. He knows firsthand the devastation of rejection and yet has plotted a biblical and realistic course toward wholeness. Dale is a gifted communicator who presents bite-sized thoughts in a hopeful and memorable fashion. I highly recommend this book! -- Dr. Jim Meyer, author of Church Coup and founder of Restoring Kingdom Builders, Menifee, California I have never been divorced but I know what it is like to lose what is most important in one's life. From my own journey out of despair and hopelessness I am convinced that in losing a spouse to suicide, one goes through a unique grieving process very different from losing a mate from physical illness. Dale Brown's extraordinary book has provided many pearls of wisdom for those who have walked in my shoes. That that was not his intention is a fine testament to the poignancy and words of universal wisdom that he has penned. I only wish I had had his guide twenty-five years ago as it would have provided great comfort and counsel to me when I needed it most. -- Richard Collins
