Guideposts
Guideposts is a non-profit organization rooted in faith, established in 1945 by Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, Raymond Thornburg, and Ruth Stafford Peale, Dr. Peale's wife. The first edition of Guideposts magazine was a four-page pamphlet aimed at inspiring and uplifting people, especially veterans returning from war, and it reached 10,000 households. This initial issue featured a story by Eddie Rickenbacker, a renowned World War I pilot. In 1947, a fire wiped out the magazine's circulation records, but thanks to the support of radio host Lowell Thomas and coverage in Reader's Digest, the publication was able to survive. Over the years, Guideposts has expanded significantly and is now one of the 30 largest magazines in the United States, boasting a circulation of 2 million copies. The Guideposts Organization, which also runs a ministry outreach program, is based in Danbury, Connecticut, with additional offices located in New York City and Nashville, Tennessee.

Twenty-three and one—that was the rule in the intake unit at El Dorado Correctional Facility, a state prison 170 miles away from Leavenworth, Kansas, the city where I grew up. You were locked down in your cell 23 hours a day, with one hour out for supervised recreation, while the staff did an assessment to determine what programs you were eligible for and where you would serve out your sentence. I landed in that intake unit in March 2008. I was addicted to ecstasy, and I was selling cocaine.

It might sound strange, considering I make my living on television and have been the weatherman and cohost on the Today show for 29 years, but in my personal life, I shy away from the spotlight. I’d much rather celebrate someone else, make a big deal out of their birthday instead of my own. Which is why I tried my best to dissuade my wife, Deborah Roberts, from throwing a party for my birthday last August. But I knew I couldn’t stop her. It was a milestone birthday, after all—my seventieth.

The holiday season can be fraught for people who are grieving, whether it’s their first Christmas without a loved one or the tenth. Any movie, song, decoration and tradition is a potential trigger. It can be a time of extreme loneliness—when the comfort of a friend or family member is needed most. But what to say to someone who’s grieving? How can we truly be a help? The fear of doing the wrong thing can be paralyzing. So we don’t call or visit, then feel guilty.
