Contributed by Mark Armstrong on Jan 6, 2019

A short sermon for a funeral service. I wrote this talk for the funeral of a Christian person.

In Nahum 1.7—a book in the Bible not often heard—the prophet Nahum says, “The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him” (Nahum 1:7).
