Hope and Help for the Hurting

Last week I attended a free sneak peek screening of the movie Letters to God, which tells the story of a young boy dealing with cancer and describes how his faith throughout affects his family, friends, and community. The event was sponsored by Basket of Hope, an area organization whose mission is to give the [...]

Getting Real

Let’s get real. Sometimes, I feel numb inside and stumble through days with little direction or motivation. Lately, the days have turned into weeks, even months. If you really want to know, this has been an entire winter of discontent. My apologies to Shakespeare. Please don’t think I’ve lost my way or that I’m ready [...]

Testimony – Grieving with Hope

CTA received this comment from a customer: “I recently ordered copies of “Facing Illness with Hope” and “Grieving with Hope” from CTA. I shared a copy of “Grieving with Hope” with a recent widow from our church. I knew she needed encouragement as she had not returned to church since her husband died several months [...]

Vision for Grieving with Hope and Facing Illness with Hope – Part Two

In a recent blog entry I shared about the vision CTA and I share for ministry using Grieving with Hope and Facing Illness with Hope within congregations. Expand that vision beyond the local congregation. Let’s start with Facing Illness with Hope . Do you know or yourself serve as a hospital chaplain? Chaplains love to [...]

Vision for Grieving with Hope & Facing Illness with Hope – Part One

I hope people catch the vision and the endless possibilities for ministry when they purchase and read CTA’s two books, Grieving with Hope and Facing Illness with Hope. I’m continually astonished that they’ve been priced lower than most sympathy cards and even come with an envelope for mailing. Today people often send email cards for [...]

“Grieving with Hope” and “Facing Illness with Hope”

I don’t know that I’ve had a greater passion for anything I’ve had published than I have for Grieving with Hope and Facing Illness with Hope. And I love that the team at CTA thought of special details when publishing these resources. We knew the books couldn’t be long or cumbersome. People who are sick [...]

Endorsement – Grieving with Hope

Grieving with Hope acknowledges with gentleness and compassion the emotions a person experiences with the death of a loved one. During a time when even little things seem overwhelming, this book walks alongside someone with the simple truths of God’s Word. In a society where people often feel pressure to quickly “move on” in their [...]
