Christians Grieve Too

Christians Grieve Too by Howard, Donald. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780851513157.

Donald Howard was minister of St. Peters Church of England, Sydney when his wife, Diana, at the age of forty contracted cancer. She was to live a further six years but, he writes, although through faith in Christ we were ill-prepared for death, I was ill-prepared for grief. This ill-preparedness, he found, arose from a lack of understanding and two years later he wrote these pages for the help of others. They contain a blend of biblical, pastoral and personal elements and serve to fill a gap on the subject of bereavement.
