Overview

Paul Tautges’ compassionate, biblical guide to grief is an invaluable addition to the Track series for young adults


The reality of death means that we all encounter grief at some point in our lives. But what does the Bible say about how we handle the aftermath of separation? Paul Tautges compassionately addresses the struggles we face when dealing with loss, all the while pointing to the hope and comfort that can be found in Christ.

 

Biblical Comfort: Explore the timeless wisdom of scripture and find solace in knowing the God who grieves. Track: Grief gently guides you through biblical passages that provide strength, reassurance, and the promise of God’s eternal love during times of sorrow.

 

Practical Tools: Track: Grief equips you with practical tools to navigate the grieving process with grace. Engage with the thought–provoking questions in each chapter, and prayer through what you read, and learn to rely on God, even when navigating the challenging terrain of grief.
