It is also a resource for parents as they lead their children into an understanding of the deep, hard things concerning death. The first part of the book is THE Story and the second part of the book is a devotional for the whole family with practical, fun activities for each day as they learn to apply God's truth and love in their lives.

I highly recommend this scriptural resource to those impacted by the loss of a loved one and those counseling others through such loss! Dr. Brent Belford Senior Pastor at Colonial Baptist Church Virginia Beach, Virginia Death invades each life with grief and loss. We all are confronted by suffering and sorrow, whether in our own families or in those of our friends, our neighbors, co-workers or church families. Navigating our emotions and thoughts biblically can be painful and confusing, but helping children in their journey through grief can be especially challenging. Jenny Powers, in her poignant yet practical book, When Someone You Love..., has provided a much needed resource for those who minister to children in their loss. Jenny has walked this journey through grief and loss and has helped her children work through the death of their sibling. She has experienced God's grace in her life during her own deep pain in the valley of the shadow of death. She shares the comfort of the Holy Spirit in this sensitive and scripturally sound devotional for use with children. Written as conversations between a parent and child, Jenny's book is filled with the gospel-laced truths of Scripture. Immensely personal yet extremely practical. By far the greatest treasure of the book is Jenny's continual focus on the child's relationship with God-looking to Him as the source of hope and purpose. She leads the reader through a clear and uncompromising presentation of the gospel that will guide the reader in how to lead the child to Christ. As a biblical counselor, a mother and grandmother, I am thankful for this resource. As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 1 Peter 4:10 Powers has stewarded God's grace through her journey of suffering by employing her gifts to produce a work that will serve the body of Christ for generations to come.
