    Lesson 8: For Their Continued Growth Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 23, 2018
     | 5,451 views

    Funeral sermon for a 16-year old who took his life by suicide at 3 AM by gunshot. It is based on what God provided Elijah when he wanted to die. Its intent is to offer the equivalent of bread, water and rest to the grieving, especially peers and family.
