Higher Than The Heavens and Deeper Than The Grave

Higher Than the Heavens and Deeper Than the Grave is the story of what happens when love and death face-off. Although death is a tremendously powerful force, love is a worthy adversary. When death interrupts life, it often leaves sadness, anger, and fear in its wake. Confronted by death, love refuses to die. Love defies the grave and gives us a measure of grace. Love resolutely strengthens the bond that death has seemingly destroyed. Love does not disregard our challenging feelings, but instead dares us to change our focus. Love provides the means for bridging the distance to heaven.

While death does not leave us unchanged, love certainly reminds us that it cannot change everything. When a death occurs, it impacts the entire family system, and further impacts each individual. While the pages of this book are etched with pain, they are encased in hope. This is an insightful and inspiring story, written in the honest voice of a mother who has lost her son. In sharing Higher Than the Heavens, Lucero-Mills shares the personal testimony of her family. This book provides the answer for anyone who has loved and lost and wondered how life will go on. In the end, it is not about what death takes away from us. It is about the love that remains with us despite it all.
