Honey From a Strange Hive and Other Funeral Sermons

$9.99

Every pastor dreads the call. A family you barely know, a room full of grieving strangers — many of them the furthest from God they'll ever be. This may be your only pulpit moment with them. This book was built for that moment. However, the duty is also an opportunity to speak into the lives of people you will never preach to. The largest group of unconverted people you will speak to gather at a funeral. Working at doing funeral sermons right has been this author's life goal.
