Rediscovering life after the loss of a loved one.

Is there life after death?

You may have picked up this book for one of several reasons. Perhaps someone you love has died and you need comfort in this challenging time, wisdom on how to put matters into perspective, and strength to move on with your life. Maybe you are trying to make sense of what happened, and you wonder if anything will ever be normal again.

Perhaps you have a friend who has lost a loved one and you feel inadequate to help him or her. Your heart goes out to your friend, but you just don't know what to say. Or maybe you simply desire to be better prepared and equipped for helping others when the inevitable losses of life occur.

This book is not a magic wand that will instantly make the pain vanish. Neither will Life After Death provide you with a quick fix for a friend who is hurting. But these pages contain insights from God's Word and personal reflections from those who have walked the road you are now walking. These insights will be a source of strength, comfort, and valuable information to assist you in your journey.
