Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 18, 2000

If you want to be certain that you have nothing to fear from death, then put your confidence in Jesus Christ.

We’ll all face it in the end, but none of us seems to want to face it now. It’s almost as though we’re scared of it. For some there’s ...read more

The Three R's Of Death

Contributed by David Gant on Dec 31, 2005

This is a funeral service I have used several times, most recently in the situation where I doubted the salvation of the individual, and the family was mixed with believers and unbelivers. It is a way to honor the individual, but still present the gospel

Lead Others To Know God

Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jan 31, 2006
