I'll Hold You in Heaven

By Jack Hayford

What happened to my baby after he or she died?
Will I ever see my baby again--and will I recognize him?
What happens if I've had an abortion?
Does God have a reason for letting my child die?
How can I help a friend who's experiencing grief?

With compassionate answers for your troubling questions, God's Word shines with hope in the dark night of human pain. God showed His tenderness when David lost a child he had with Bathsheba. In his pain and grief, David spoke the word of revelation--the reassuring word of God's truth--saying, "I will go to [my child] but he will not return to me" (2 Samuel 12:19-23).

As Pastor Jack Hayford says, "This isn't myth, fable, legend or a selection of poetic thoughts for the sorrowful. This is truth to set us free. Here we are specifically freed to expect to meet children in heaven, to recognize them and to be with them."

Let Jack Hayford show you the freeing truth of the Word of God and its promise that one day, like David, you will hold your child in heaven.

Reviews for I'll Hold You in Heaven

[skwilson-1 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This book was full of grace and loving compassion for those who have deeply emotional questions as to the status of the baby they lost to death. While I know there are many who hold differing opinions on the answers to some of these questions, Hayford has given careful consideration in searching the Word of God to find answers rather than leaning on his personal preference to offer as comfort. Only the Truth of God can bring lasting comfort to the hurting.
