Cancer. Suicide. The death of a child. As much as we wish we could
avoid tragedies like these, eventually they will strike your church
community. When they do, pastors must be ready to offer help by
communicating the life-changing message of the gospel in a way that
offers hope, truth, and encouragement during these difficult
circumstances. Those asked to preach in the midst of tragedy know
the anxiety of trying to say appropriate things from God s Word
that will comfort and strengthen God s people when emotions and
faith are stretched thin. This indispensable resource helps pastors
prepare sermons in the face of tragedies by providing suggestions
for how to approach different kinds of tragedy, as well as insight
into how to handle the theological challenges of human suffering.
Each topic provides a specific description of the context of the
tragedy, the key concerns that need to be addressed in the message,
and an outline of the approach taken in the sample sermon that
follows. Topics addressed include: abortion; abuse; responding to
national and community tragedies; the death of a child; death due
to cancer and prolonged sickness; death due to drunk driving; drug
abuse; and suicide. Bryan Chapell, author of Christ-Centered
Preaching, has gathered together messages from some of today s most
trusted Christian leaders including: John Piper, Tim Keller,
Michael Horton, Jack Collins, Dan Doriani, Jerram Barrs, Mike
Khandjian, Robert Rayburn, Wilson Benton, Bob Flayhart, and George
Robertson. Each chapter provides you with the resources you need to
communicate the life-giving hope of the gospel in the midst of
tragedy. In addition, the appendices provide further suggestions of
biblical texts for addressing various subjects as well as guidance
for conducting funerals."
