Finding Hope, Healing, and God’s Presence in the Midst of Loss Some books are written from the mountaintop. This one was written in the valley. 💛 I wrote The Space Between Grief and Grace while I was still grieving three beautiful women who shaped who I am. They were role models, voices of wisdom, and pillars in my life. When they were gone, the emptiness was more than words could hold. I didn’t write this book because I had all the answers.

AI can draft the memo, the email, crunch the data, and schedule the meeting. But it still can't do the one thing that actually moves people — lead them. Let's be honest: AI is no longer coming.
