When You Lose a Loved One presents a hopeful message of resurrection and eternal life--a message Christians have heard so many times before. But in death's aftermath, people often need assurance of what they know is true about life after death. So Charles Allen offers the bereaved a beautifully crafted reminder that the Easter message robs death of its terror and promises a solution to life's mysteries.Intermingled with Allen's prose are the comforting poems of Helen Steiner Rice. With an updated look and new organization, this encouraging book will bring meaning and hope to those who have lost loved ones.
