Customer Reviews

A much needed practical guide for officiating funerals.

This book contains valuable "hows" and "whys" for conducting today's funerals. It gives the philosophical framework and the practical "how-to's" that Pastors need to conduct a funeral that is honoring to the deceased and helpful to family and friends. Dan Lloyd has a tremendous amount of experience, which is evident in this book. You will find the basics you need to effectively minister in times of crisis and death. I heartily recommend this book!
