In Safe in the Arms of God, MacArthur provides answers to questions such as: - What happens to children—those unborn, stillborn, or youngsters—when they die? - Can you hope to see them again? - Can you let go of your fear and guilt? - Can God's love soothe a wound so jagged? With pastoral compassion yet a focus on candid Biblical truth, Safe in the Arms of God presents what the Bible has to say on the matter. It provides insights not only to families who have lost small children, but to pastors and Christian leaders who minister to them. "I have sat by the grave of our daughter and son and wondered out loud if my belief that Hope and Gabriel are in heaven has any solid scriptural support. John MacArthur offers truth from God's Word that puts the doubts of any grieving parent to rest. Safe in the Arms of God reveals that confidence of heaven for the child you love is based on much more than mere sentimentality; it is revealed in the Word of God and reflective of the very heart of God." ?Nancy Guthrie, author of Holding On to Hope
