Encouragement for those Facing Difficult Times
Cancer: Now What?
Is a practical guide for those with cancer and their loved ones. It is a comprehensive, easy-to-read tool for navigating the medical, emotional, relational and spiritual challenges that cancer brings.
Link to Bookstore
Don’t Sing Songs to a Heavy Heart
Offers real-world advice on how to relate to those who are suffering. The reader will learn what to say and do – and what NOT to say or do – when people are hurting. The book is a valuable resource for those who work in a caregiving field, as well as for volunteers or anyone who wants to relate to people who are suffering in ways that ease their pain, instead of adding to their burden.
