    God's Grief Vs. Man's Grief Series

     | 20,122 views

    God’s grief is not only the response of his heart to the arrows of pain that wound us. God himself is wounded by the separation caused by death. Death interrupts God’s own conversation with his child. When it comes to enduring pain, God asks nothing of us

    We come here today pay our respect to ( ), and to comfort members of the family and friends. We belong to a larger family, the family of believers in Jesus Christ, the conqueror of death. And this is the hour when our belief in Him is tested. This is the moment when our declared personal ...read more

From the things I’ve heard from his family and others in the community, I ...read more

    based on 11 ratings
     | 15,901 views

    This funeral sermon was prepared for the funeral of a four month old but would be good for any funeral.

    At a time of death we need reassuring words. Those words are important when they are given but especially when they come from a friend. The words of a friend seem to carry greater weight. They are warm. They are to be trusted. In John 11 we find Jesus sharing a challenging experience with some of ...read more
