They measure their loss against death and conclude it does not count, leaving no space to process or heal. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNicole Langman writes to these women and says loss should never be minimized. When the future is ripped out of their hands, women need a gentle voice to guide them through their feelings--a voice with biblical wisdom, tender understanding, and a therapeutic approach. \u003ci\u003eThis Isn't the Story I Wanted\u003c\/i\u003e offers women practical support, faith-based hope, and guidance from a professional who has traveled the path of non-death grief. Nicole validates women's pain and demonstrates how God's presence can transform the valley of grief into a journey of healing and growth. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned with the grieving reader in mind, the book is made up of short, stand-alone, devotional-style chapters that integrate descriptive storytelling and therapy-based reframing techniques to help readers find hope and freedom in their pain. The jagged edges of unwanted goodbyes and brokenhearted living are painful, and real.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicole Langman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0825453372\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780825453373\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kregel Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/20\/2026","brand":"Nicole Langman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48874660430079,"sku":"9780825453373","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/this-isnt-the-story-i-nicole-langman-9780825453373","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
