Excellent for dealing with Tragedy, Trauma, & Loss

One again Tommy Tenney has come through. Right after the events of 9/11/01, the Lord prompted Tommy Tenney to write this book. Tommy then felt that the TBN broadcasting audience should have the first shot at it. TBN is one of mailing lists that I'm on through the ministry. So, in February of 2002, I got a copy of this book. One of the weaknesses of many Christians is that they don't know what to do when extreme bad things happen (tragedy, trauma, loss, etc.). First, it's hard enough to deal with when those things happen in our own lives. But when they happen to others and they turn to us for advice & support, we're just as lost. In this book, Tommy Tenney tells us what to do during those times of pain & heartbreak. What he explains can be used for us or for others when they go through tough times. As it was no surprise to me, he quotes from the Beautitudes and how they apply to us today. As Tommy said, "God is waiting to meet us on the way home from the funeral." In other words, God is there for us no matter what we're going through. Sometimes we feel as if we need more of him. Kudos once again to Tommy Tenney. If you're going through something that's been difficult or already have, this book is for you. If you know someone that is going through a tough time or the aftermath of it, this book would be the perfect gift for them.
