The Ache in the Ordinary: Finding God in Everyday Grief
by Phil Allen
When life unravels, we expect grief to come knocking. But what about the smaller aches -- the quiet disappointments, the losses that don't come with casseroles or funerals?

In The Ache in the Ordinary, hospice chaplain and former pastor Phil Allen invites readers into a gentler, truer way of walking with sorrow. Drawing from decades of ministry and his own seasons of disorientation, Allen explores how lament -- the honest expression of pain before God -- is not a sign of weak faith but a doorway to deeper intimacy.

Through stories, scripture, and simple spiritual practices, he helps us name the everyday griefs that weigh on the soul:
? The friendship that fades.
? The dream that quietly dies.
? The prayer that stays unanswered.
? The version of ourselves we hoped to become.
In these pages, you'll find space to breathe, to question, and to be met by a God who does not turn away from our tears.

The Ache in the Ordinary is not a book of answers. It's a companion for the road. A quiet voice beside you that says, You are not too much. You are not too small. You are already held.

Perfect for those navigating deconstruction, discouragement, or the weariness of everyday life, this book offers a contemplative and compassionate path toward healing faith.
