Walter Wangerin speaks directly from the heart in this touching and instructional new DVD.  Based on his own experiences of living with life- threatening cancer for the last two plus years.  He speaks about how cancer has changed his life and how his faith has sustained and prepared him to meet death itself. In   Confronting Death, is not for the Christian idealist: it is for every Christian, as we learn how to be different from the world here and now. This compelling teaching explains how Christ is victorious over death. Excellent for Sunday school classes, study groups, equipping caregivers who do visitation ministry, hospice, and working with those who are grieving. 

Watching a child grieve, and not know what to do is a profoundly difficult experience for parents, teachers, and caregivers.  Yet, there are guidelines for helping children develop a lifelong, healthy response to loss.  In When Children Grieve, the authors offer a cutting-edge volume to free children from the false idea of "not feeling bad" and to empower them with positive, effective methods of dealing with loss.  Many of life's experiences can produce feelings of grief in a child, from the death of a relative or a divorce in the family to more everyday experiences such as moving to a new neighborhood or losing a prized possession.  What ever the reason or degree of severity, if a child you love is grieving, the guidelines examined in this thoughtful book can make a difference.
