The reactions to the church massacre by these and others whose lives intertwine with Michael’s all work to help Michael decide whether this world is good enough to bring a new life into it.

In Through Loss to Love Michael must sort out and resolve the conflicting questions that spring from the suicide attempt of a major character, an unsettling visit from his best friend Tom, the birth of his son, the apparent conversion of his assailant Jonah and the distressing deaths of two other characters who are very close to his life story.
