Finding Hope in the Mourning: What the Bible Says About Grief And More

Finding Hope in the Mourning offers a heartfelt journey through loss, revealing God’s plan for comfort. From Genesis to Revelation, the theme of death and the Christian hope of eternal life is woven throughout. This book goes beyond the familiar stories of Job’s suffering and Lazarus’ resurrection to explore the struggles of more than fifty biblical figures and thirty men and women of modern-day faith who experienced deep personal loss. It explains how the brain processes grief, the healing power of music, how tears contain natural painkillers, and how artificial intelligence is targeting the grieving. With sound theology, personal testimony, and the remarkable story behind the Reunion Heart necklace—a comfort gift line inspired by Abraham’s final reunion with his loved ones—these pages offer both inspiration and insight. Author Dianne Waggoner invites readers to explore what the Bible teaches about grief and embrace God’s promise to heal every broken heart.

Gifted To Serve

Much has been written about spiritual gifts, but there is little agreement about what the Bible teaches. Relying on personal experience, faulty interpretations, and presuppositions has caused confusion on this important topic.

Gifted to Serve is a comprehensive and practical guide to understanding spiritual gifts based on the biblical data in Romans, First Corinthians, and the Book of Acts.

Lord, Teach Us To Pray

Why is it that God does not answer some prayers? How often should we pray? What should we pray about? Why pray at all, if God’s will is inevitable? What are the benefits of prayer? These and many other questions are answered in “Lord, Teach Us to Pray.” Eight key passages where Jesus taught about prayer are examined. What He said about prayer is life-changing.

The Believers Battle With Temptation

The Believer’s Battle With Temptation

The temptation to sin is inevitable. But does that mean we can’t have victory over it? Although every believer is targeted by evil and confronted with temptation that comes in many ways, understanding the principles in God’s Word (as to how we can resist it and triumph over it) will equip and encourage us in our Christian lives. This course is a basic guide to spiritual self-defense. It is theologically sound and intensely practical.

Forgiving And Being Forgiven

Forgiving & Being Forgiven concisely presents what the Bible teaches about a crucial matter in every relationship—the need to forgive one another. The author sets this study in the context of some real-life experiences and the research of respected Christian experts in the field. He draws principles from the teachings of Christ Himself and other related Bible texts to make pertinent and practical applications to this challenging aspect of our lives. Whether you need to forgive someone who has offended you or you need to be forgiven, this short course is your guide to repairing the damage.
