Description
Take My Hand empowers parents to help grieving children understand the reality of death and find the hope of Heaven.
A child unaffected by the death of a loved one is a myth. When a family is fragile in the midst of grieving the loss of a loved one, there are particularly vulnerable mourners who must not be overlooked: children.
Take My Hand offers perspectives of co-authors Sharon Marshall and her son Jeff Johnson. Writing from both the personal experience of parenting her preschooler through the grief of losing his baby brother and from her years of working with high-risk youth traumatized by grief and loss, Sharon Marshall offers:
?Answers not only to childrens' questions, but to yours, such as: Should I take my child to the viewing? Should my child see my tears? How do I answer my child's questions when they cause me, or others, pain?
?Practical suggestions for dealing with the common effects of grief on children.
?How to recognize and respond to hidden grief in your child
?Biblical insights into the grief process
A reflection from Sharon's now grown son, Jeff, is at the end of each chapter.
Take My Hand! is sensitive, biblically sound, and tender. It helps those who experience the death of a loved one learn to grieve with their living children and plant eternity in a child's heart.
Take My Hand! provides you with an opportunity to support and serve the parents and children in your community.
