Wipe the Tears | 30 Children's Sermons on Death (Vos Wezeman, Liechty, Wezeman)

Teaching Children about Death

Wipe the Tears: 30 Children's Sermons on Death is the third book of children's sermons designed for use by clergy and lay leaders to preach to children from kindergarten to upper-elementary youth.

Wipe the Tears confronts the difficult yet important subject of death. The authors skillfully and compassionately use the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures to approach to subject of death in each sermon: demonstrating God's desire to save humankind; showing how the psalms challenge and comfort us; and sharing the victory over death through Christ's resurrection.
