Trusting God through Tears

Offering gentle comfort and encouragement for the grieving spirit and solid church teachings to challenge the mind, Trusting God through Tears tells the moving story of a family's loss and a father's struggle to trust his Creator in the midst of tremendous pain. Following the sudden death of his twelve-year-old son, Jehu Burton finds himself immersed in the emotions that come with great loss and faced with faith-shaking questions that have never before arisen in his spiritual life. In this inspiring book, Burton walks readers through the days, months, and years following Kelly's death. He reveals how he survived the most terrible event of his life and learned to trust in God's sovereignty. Readers who have experienced a family death--as well as counselors and those who have suffered through divorce, extended separation, job loss, or other traumatic events--will see how Burton found comfort in Scripture, discover how he became a changed person able to reach out to others facing suffering, and find hope and encouragement to do the same.
