Into the Hands of a Just God
Finding Peace When a Loved One Dies Without Christ
A Biblical Companion for Believers Carrying the Weight of Unanswered Questions
What do you do when someone you love dies-and you are no longer certain you will ever see them again?
Few burdens are heavier than wondering about the eternal destiny of a parent, spouse, child, sibling, relative, or lifelong friend who appeared to die without Christ.
Into the Hands of a Just God was written for believers who carry this hidden grief. It is not a book of speculation. It is a compassionate biblical guide for learning to trust the character of God when we cannot know the final story of another person’s heart.
For the one who still remembers the phone call.
For the one who stood beside a casket while silently asking, “Lord, where are they now?”
For the one who has carried guilt for years because they believe they should have prayed more, spoken more, or done more.
For the one who is afraid to ask the questions no one in church seems willing to answer.
This book is for you.
