Grief is something that we all must deal with at some point in our life. It cannot be escaped by any of us. The Bible tells us that "it is appointed unto man once to die." But it is not something that we know how to handle very well, especially when it comes to helping others navigate through everything that comes with it: shock, denial, anger, depression, loneliness, etc.
Pastor Alan Griffith pulls from his over thirty years of ministry, as well as the loss of his wife to help us minister more effectively to those who have lost a loved one and to understand "What Not to Say to a Grieving Heart." There are some things that may be true but not helpful, some things that are not true at all, and some things that just should not be said period. Sometimes the best way to minister to a grieving heart is to say nothing at all.
Most people want to be of some comfort to those who are grieving, but they just don't know what to say or do to make a difference. If you are looking at this book, you are one of those people who want to make a difference in someone's life. This book will help you better minister to those who have experienced a great loss in their life.
