Today, Roberta talks to Erin Nelson about her new book When Grief Comes Home: A Gentle Guide for Living Through Loss While Supporting Your Child, available from Baker Books.

When death touches your family, you are never quite prepared. Complicating your personal pain and the need to grieve is the equally important task of helping your children understand and process the loss of a loved one. How should you answer your child's questions about death? Should you let them see you cry? How can you support their resilience? How can you help preserve memories?

Drawing from their own personal and professional experience, Erin Nelson and Colleen Montague help you navigate loss alongside your child. They provide honest ways to talk to your child about death according to age and stage of development and offer ideas on how to process, honor, and integrate loss. Chapters end with reflective questions and healing activities that lead to more meaningful connection between parents and children, inspiring hope for the future.

When families find healing practices together, they find ways to integrate their loss and expand their capacity to thrive. Through times of tragedy, when parents and children have the support they need, the shared experience of grief can become part of their family's sacred story.

Today, guest host Luke Taylor talks to Sandra Peoples about her new book Accessible Church: A Gospel-Centered Vision for Including People with Disabilities and Their Families, available from Crossway publishers.

How Churches of Every Size Can Create Inclusive Ministry Spaces for People with Disabilities

An estimated one in 5 households has a child with a disability. Many of these families miss out on church due to a lack of physical or social accommodations. And while ministry leaders want to help, they often don’t know how to with limited space, budget, and trained volunteers. Churches must understand the challenges that disability families face so they can remove barriers to biblical fellowship.

Sandra Peoples, a disability ministry consultant and professor, has equipped hundreds of churches, large and small, to reach children and teens who have various cognitive disabilities, learning disabilities, physical disabilities, and behavioral and mental health diagnoses. Caring for disabled family members of her own, she understands what it takes to create a welcoming, inclusive space that supports children with a variety of diagnoses into adulthood. Through expert advice and practical examples, she shows ministry leaders how they can make their spaces―and the gospel―accessible to all.

Today, Roberta talks to Sy Garte about his new book Beyond Evolution: How New Discoveries in the Science of Life Point to God, available from Tyndale Refresh publishers.

Is it possible that one of the biggest obstacles to harmonizing science and faith can finally be overcome? Respected biologist and former atheist Sy Garte says the answer is yes.

A flash point for much of the science vs. faith divide has been Darwinian evolution. Sharing the same mistaken belief that science contradicts the Bible, many scientists and Christians have concluded that the worlds of science and religion are at odds. But according to biologist Sy Garte, PhD, evolution is irrelevant to the harmony of faith and science. And revolutionary new developments in biology are providing stronger evidence than ever before of a purposeful creator God. In this book, Dr. Garte combines the latest research with a biblical worldview as he explains:

• why biology is at the threshold of a major transition, and why new theories beyond evolution are needed to make further progress
• why evolution by natural selection isn’t as fundamental to biological science as many people think―and how divisions over evolution are bad for the church
• why misunderstandings about both the Bible and science have caused many people to unnecessarily abandon Christianity
• how new evidence of purpose, agency, and decision-making at the cellular level points to a creator God
• how the origin of life and human consciousness show that a reductionist, purely materialistic view of life is untenable and ignores new advances in science

In Beyond Evolution, Sy Garte challenges both scientists and people of faith to follow the evidence wherever it leads―and argues powerfully for why that evidence warrants a belief in God.
