Author Description

This book provides a practical model for how to help people who are suffering. Many people hesitate to reach out to people in pain because they don't know what to say or do. But according to Jim Kok, the most important thing we can do is show up. In fourteen short chapters, Kok examines different aspects of helping others, identifies roadblocks, and suggests practical steps readers can take. Each chapter concludes with questions based on Scripture and personal reflections that help us respond with compassionate action in everyday life. Great reading for personal growth, study groups, or ministry teams.
