Welcome to David Oliver Books and thanks so much for taking an interest in these resources. All About Grief is the latest book to be launched in March 2026 following the best-selling companion book all About Heaven whose content has already reached over 100,000 folks in various formats.
There’s a short video below that introduces All About Grief exploring how we can live through the most debilitating shocking and dark moments of loss without losing hope. Each chapter gently helps readers understand the journey they are on, then helps them find some measure of hope when life feels broken beyond repair.
‘I urge you to read this remarkable book. It will help you in your own grief, give wise advice as you seek to comfort others and bring the thing we crave for in the darkness of death…hope.’
Thanks for writing such a tender and truthful book on grief, it acknowledges our unpreparedness for death, the pain of unhelpful “comfort,” and the mystery of unanswered prayers. With compassion, it points us to the kind of presence that truly heals and anchors us in God’s unfailing promises of hope and nearness.

David takes us gently but firmly on a journey through the realities of grief and from a place of fearing or ignoring death to daring to look forward to it. I’d encourage everyone to go on that journey. This is one of the most significant and equipping books you will ever read even if you shed a tear on the way. Dave interweaves the deep pain of emotional grief with the sure hope of the Biblical narrative. The reader is left strengthened both in understanding and faith.’

I warmly recommend this book to anyone to those who are walking through the pain of loss and bereavement, and to church members who wish to be better equipped to the inevitable challenges of caring for others in church life. I would also recommend it to anyone seeking answers about the meaning of life and exploring the Christian faith. This book is an essential resource for the body of Christ.
