Grief and Suffering
	Does God Answer Prayers? What do you do when on the surface it seems God is willing to heal things like headaches and backaches while the prayers of the terminally ill remain unanswered? This short pamphlet offers a refreshing look at the true value and intent of prayer that will help put these other questions into perspective.
	Does God Care? This early version of Pastor Mitch’s testimony of his wife’s illness and son’s death is an easy read and helpful to give to someone who has recently experienced loss.
	Is God Sovereign? Many conclude that when suffering comes God must not be in control. You will discover that a belief in God’s sovereignty gives a firm place to stand when everything around us is out of control.
	What About Healing? Does God heal today? This short pamphlet helps the believer understand how to stand firm on the conviction that God does heal while at the same time appreciate the value of suffering.
	You're Never Alone Jesus’ cry in the garden before his death gives all believers a place to run when faced with pain. This encouraging pamphlet will lift your spirits and encourage you in whatever trial you face.
