How does the heart understand grief when it is broken by the death of a loved one? To survive and live forward, those who grieve must find answers.

The focus for Foundations during the month of October is Wisdom.

Happy the man who discovers wisdom,
the man who gains discernment:
gaining her is more rewarding than silver,
more profitable than gold. 
Proverbs 3:13-14
