"Left At The Altar" Booksneeze Review

I received a complimentary copy of Kimberley Kennedy's book "Left At the Altar" from Thomas Nelson for the purpose of review. The book is 179 pages long. It is the story of the author's true account of her experience of being left at the altar. She describes the hurt and humiliation associated with her experience. As a television personality, she could not escape comments and reminders of her hurt. The book has interesting additions, such as the perspectives of family members and men who have ended relationships with women in not so courteous manners. The author was honest enough to admit she should have seen it coming and that she had not sought God's wisdom concerning the union. The author gives practical and biblical ways to come through the hurt and to become stronger. I applaud her for revealing very personal information in order to help others who go through the same or similar events in their lives. The rejection does not have to be limited to those who are left at the altar. As anyone living today knows, there are those of us who have lost jobs, homes, and other financial resources, going through rejection is as emotionally wrenching as grief over an ill or lost loved one. I loved the book and would recommend it to anyone, not just someone who was "Left At The Altar."
