Visit the Sick: Ministering God's Grace in Times of Illness (Ministering the Master's Way)
In this little volume, Brian helps us to think straightforwardly and faithfully about God s truth and God s people. His advice is as sound as it is simple. Some parts of this may be about matters you've already figured out. But isn't it better to be told something twice, than not at all? Let Brian's be that reinforcing voice. And don't be surprised if you read some things that you hadn't thought of before. Read this book, and let Brian help you in helping others. --Mark Dever, Senior Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington, DCWhat do pastors do when visiting the sick? Such visits are crucial both eternally and pastorally. Brian Croft has written a marvelous piece to assist us. His work is theologically grounded, gospel centered, and full of practical wisdom. I recommend it enthusiastically. --Thomas R. Schreiner, James Buchanan Harrison Professor of New Testament Interpretation, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Teaching Pastor, Clifton Baptist ChurchI read Brian Croft's Visit the Sick with glad thanksgiving! Visitation is a timely and much-needed topic for pastors and Christians in our day. And Croft addresses it with sound thinking and very helpful suggestions. Visit the Sick sets out to provide sensitive, God-honoring, and gospel-driven counsel to pastors and Christians. And it hits the mark. If you re like me, someone who feels ill-equipped to say the right words or do the right things at someone's sick bed, you'll delight in this book and give God great praise for moving Brian Croft to write it. May the Lord be pleased to move us to visit our people and by that means awaken legions! --Thabiti Anyabwile, Senior Pastor, First Baptist Church, Grand Cayman Island, Author, The Faithful Preacher
