If you're looking for a planning resource to help you deal with
funerals and weddings, this book is worth its weight in gold.
Pastors are repeatedly called on to perform these ceremonies in an
infinite variety of circumstances, yet there's no
"one-size-fits-all" service, so it's a constant challenge to come
up with meaningful and appropriate material that witnesses to the
Lord's power. In this book an experienced minister shares a wealth
of ideas that help you tailor services to individual needs, making
these complicated occasions ones of impact and success for your
ministry. The Funeral And Wedding Handbook shows you how to ... *
Deal with difficult funerals ... suicides, infants, non-Christians,
and many more * Effectively comfort the hurting * Plan memorable
weddings from premarital counseling to the recessional march * Be
prepared for the overlooked details and unexpected events that
often arise during funeral and wedding services Robert Blair's book
stands alone as a comprehensive resource for both ministers and
caregivers. Though systematic, the book is filled with examples
from Blair's 40-plus years in the ministry, which makes the book
dynamic, credible, and filled with wisdom. Underlying this work is
Blair's humble, but all-encompassing devotion to Christ. An
essential resource for all involved in funerals and weddings, this
book is one of a kind. Mike Inman Chaplain, Hospice of Siouxland
Sioux City, Iowa I have found Robert Blair's The Funeral And
Wedding Handbook to be very helpful. It is well-written,
informative, practical, and contemporary for today's minister. It
is a great resource book, both for students preparing for ministry
and those who have for many years served the Lord's people during
these very important stages in life. Having this book is like
having a good friend who's always ready to answer the "how to" and
"what to" questions that come up in these situations. I highly
recommend it to all ministers. Ron Bontrager Instructor, Sunset
International Bible Institute Lubbock, Texas For 28 years, Robert
Blair pastored the Church of Christ in Hollywood, California. A
graduate of Pepperdine University (B.A., M.A.), Blair now resides
in Cleghorn, Iowa. His writings have appeared in Leadership and
Leadership Handbooks of Practical Theology.
