"By David Short. Visiting the sick, lonely or downcast is a duty we all have as Christians. It is not to be left to ministers or elders but is a responsibility for all those who seek to follow Christ's perfect example. The problem often arises when we actually make the visit. Discussing the weatheror the hospital food is all very well but for ourvisit to have maximum value we need to try and help the person spiritually. Reading our favourite Bible passage might suffice once but it cannot be apt to every situation and what happens when you visit for a second time. This is where this book helps. Providing Scripture readings, a prayer and evena suggested hymn for a wide range of possible visits it is a wonderfully useful tool. Written by authors with long pastoral experience it will provea real help to all those who seek to turn the routine visit into a time of real spiritual growth. 144 pages in hardcover."
