  Her Grief Was Heard

  $16.99

  Do you feel like you are alone in your grief?

  Her Grief Was Heard is a unique approach to a devotional using diary entries from Cady’s journal after she lost her husband at age 24. The author doesn’t shy away from hard questions she struggles with during her grief process. The candid dialogue between the young widow and God are not only emotionally validating for any reader, but also show that no emotion is too dark or ugly for God.

  Don’t be surprised if you see chapters titled by questions you wanted to ask God but felt too afraid to say them.

  As Cady vulnerably wrestles with her questions and raw emotions, she finds one thing that is irreplaceable- hope. We believe you will too. Each chapter is woven in Scripture that will tenderly comfort your grieving soul. And in each chapter, you will find that there is only One who can pick up the pieces of your broken heart.

  Ill Hold You In Heaven (Reprinted)

  $9.99

  What happened to my baby after he or she died? Will I ever see my baby again-and will I recognize him? What happens if I’ve had an abortion? Does God have a reason for letting my child die? How can I help a friend who’s in grief? With compassionate answers for your troubling questions, God’s Word shines with hope in the dark night of human pain. God showed his tenderness when David lost the child he had with Bathsheba shortly. In his pain and grief, David spoke the word of revelation-the reassuring word of God’s truth-saying, “I will go to (my child) but he will not return to me” (2 Samuel 12:19-23).

  Anchors For The Soul

  $17.99

  ANCHOR YOUR FAITH IN THE STORY OF GOD BEFORE-AND DURING-THE STORMS

  Drawing on his own experience with losses and tragedies through the death of his young wife and, more recently, the death of his sixteen-year-old son, John Mark Hicks tells the story of God through his own experiences of suffering.

  He does not explain suffering because, as he describes, that cannot be done; rather, he walks with sufferers through the valley of loss. He grounds them deeply in the story of God’s love, listening, empathy, sovereignty, and victory. This path is not only for those who seek to persevere in the midst of their suffering but also for those who want to prepare for the suffering that comes to all.

  In addition to helping sufferers, John Mark provides guidance for those who want to sit with people who are suffering. He offers advice to help comforters provide comfort. There are no easy answers. Our questions, in fact, are never fully answered. Despite this, however, there is a path of assurance, comfort, and trust that yields perseverance, peace, and hope.

  The “anchors” are found in God, who:

  *loves us
  *listens to us
  *empathizes with us
  *gives meaning to our suffering
  *ultimately triumphs over all suffering

  These anchors ground us in God’s redemptive story.

  What We Find In The Dark

  $18.99

  None of us is exempt from loss. We lose what we expected, what we thought we believed, our sense of security or identity. We lose friendships. We lose people we love.

  What do we do with the disruption, disorientation, and devastation of loss? How do we survive unpredictable grief, ongoing suffering, and the questions about God that happen in the dark nights of our lives? In What We Find in the Dark, author and pastor Aubrey Sampson writes through the illness and death of her best friend, offering raw, real, and fought-for spiritual wisdom and practical insights for loss, grief, and doubt. What We Find in the Dark not only helps us locate ourselves on the journey of loss but gives honesty, hope, and direction for what’s ahead.

  What We Find in the Dark includes:

  *Authentic and resonant stories and insights,
  *Compelling and powerful “sticky statements” that encapsulate transformative concepts,
  *Reflective practices and exercises.

  None of us want to be in seasons of sorrow. But sometimes the dark nights of life and faith have strange gifts. On the other side, we find ourselves free from the superficial in our lives. We discover peace and the assurance that we are loved. And we experience a deeper, more honest relationship with the God we found in the dark. But until that time comes, you do not need to journey alone. Learn to walk through the darkness while holding onto hope.

  All Gods Comfort

  $16.00

  God Comforts Those in Grief

  All God’s Comfort explores the divine work of comforting those who suffer the effects of this fallen world. After studying the God of comfort and exploring His promises, legendary author Herbert Lockyer applies these truths systematically to the common valleys of human grief and fear.

  With an approach that is both pastoral and practical, Lockyer uses Scripture, as well as the writings of scholars, poets, and hymnists, to encourage those who need comforting. He also provides guidance to those who seek to become comforters of others, describing the individual and community benefits of doing so.

  Grieving people, and those who care about them, will find this book to be an insightful guide to availing oneself of God’s comfort.

  Inheritance Of Tears

  $9.99

  When a woman becomes pregnant, miscarriage is usually the furthest thing from her mind. Such was the case for Jessalyn Hutto when she became pregnant with her first baby. But as is all too common in our post-fall world, the life she carried came to an abrupt end. Death had visited her womb, and the horrors of miscarriage had become a part of her life’s story.

  Ultimately, she would lose two children in the womb, one at 6 weeks gestation and another at 15 weeks. Through these painful losses, a whole new world of suffering opened up to her. It seemed that everywhere she looked women were quietly mourning the loss of their unborn children. Yet this particular type of loss has been grossly overlooked by the church.

  Couples navigating the unique sorrow of losing a child are often left with little biblical counsel to draw upon. Well-meaning friends and family often offer empty platitudes and Christian cliches. But what these couples truly need is the hope of the gospel.

  Short, sensitive, and theologically robust, Inheritance of Tears offers hope and comfort to those who are called to walk through the painful trial of miscarriage, and shows pastors and church members how to effectively minister to these parents in their time of need.
