Endorsements

When we lost our baby unexpectedly, silence filled my soul. By the grace of God, Abbey does the impossible in Held by putting words to our pain in miscarriage while offering the hope of the gospel. She guides the broken hearted woman into the endless grace of God.

Gretchen Saffles Founder, Well-Watered Women

It was no coincidence that Abbey was writing Held when we lost our second baby. The portions of it that she shared with me were a balm to my aching heart. This is a Word-saturated book, tenderly written by a woman who loves Jesus, trusts him, and wants to see many hurting moms do the same. I highly recommend it to you.

Kristen Wetherell Author, Hope When It Hurts, Humble Moms, and the For the Bible Tells Me So board book series

I will always keep a copy of Held on my bookshelf to share with mothers enduring the pain of miscarriage. I am abundantly grateful to have a resource that reassures grieving mothers of God’s presence, nearness, and purpose, even in the hardest days.

We're so sorry to hear about this loss in your church family. We're so grateful that these resources proved to be helpful.

5.00 stars The best book on miscarriage that I've ever read!

 

This book is the most amazing book about the sorrow of miscarriage! I have lost 3 precious babies over the years and I can only say that I wish I had this book when I was walking through those trials. While it has been 3 years since my last miscarriage, I can tell you that I cried many times while reading this and I've never felt so understood. Abbey does an amazing job of addressing the topic with compassion and kindness while pointing grieving mothers to the truth of scripture! If you or someone you know has gone through a ...

5.00 stars Compassionate & Personal

 

Speaking from experience, miscarriage is hard. It is a grief I never expected to endure multiple times as a young married woman when trying for children. When I first saw this book being advertised and previewed the PDF chapters, I kept thinking, I wish this book was around four years ago when the losses were still fresh, and I was clinging to Jesus, despite feeling alone in my sorrow. I am thankful for this book now as it is rooted in God's Word. So many resources and groups I was directed to were all about searching inside of myself to ...
