A Time to Mourn
Grieving the Loss of Those Whose Eternities Were Uncertain
Will Dobbie
When we are unsure of a loved one’s salvation
Truth and comfort from the Bible
Focus on character of God
To a Christian, the death of an unbeliever is heartbreaking. But even in the darkness of grief, there can be light. Will Dobbie’s nuanced examination of the hope found in the Bible offers more than shallow comfort. With the tone of a pastor, who knows how hard it is to lose a friend and not know whether they belong to Christ, Will Dobbie affirms that we don’t need to suppress grief. He directs our eyes towards the One who knows all things, who feels our heartache, and who Himself grieves. If you are mourning a loved one, this book offers not shallow consolation, but real comfort based in the truth of God’s Word.

We all need this book! Will Dobbie doesn’t reassure us with empty sentiments or cliche verses, but with the very character of our good God Himself. In this sorrow, there is no better anchor.

… a beautiful condensation of what we can know about our Father’s tender care. Knowing God in this way will prove a balm in the midst of sorrow and strength in the face of debilitating weakness. Thoroughly recommended.

I thank God for Will Dobbie’s soldier’s courage. It has meant that when confronted with the horror of the death of loved ones, who have rejected Christ, he has not shied away, but forced himself to engage biblically and pastorally with this grievous subject. The result is a book on God’s character that I wish I had read 30 years ago at the start of my ministry.

Sound, sensitive and scriptural.
