Summary
When sorrow enters the home, what does a pastor say—first to himself, then to his flock? In The Broken Home, B.M. Palmer doesn’t offer theory, but theology tested by personal grief. With tenderness and fidelity to Christ, Palmer gives us a model of how a shepherd suffers—quietly, scripturally, and with hope. It provides help for the grieving, and also for those who minister to the grieving. This episode offers a timely meditation on grief, ministry, and the kind of spiritual comfort our churches still desperately need today.
