A Widow Directed to a Widow's God (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781601787897)

When the Son of God came to earth, one thing He did was to bind up the brokenhearted and comfort those who mourn. We need to likewise fulfill the task of "pure and undefiled religion" in looking after widows and orphans in their distress (James 1:27). A bruised heart requires the gentlest handling, and here you will find timeless advice on how to achieve that in your ministry.
