"THE CONFIDENCE THAT YOU NEED TO OFFER HOPE AND COMFORT TO THOSE
THAT ARE MOURNING."
I remember the first funeral that I ever performed. I was so
insecure. How do you comfort someone that is hurting so much? How to
you point the family and friends to Christ while staying sensitive to
their trauma? How do you offer hope?
I REALIZED THAT I WAS IN OVER MY HEAD!
I called my dad and explained my situation to him. He has been a
pastor for close to thirty years and he always been excellent at
comforting those that have experienced loss. He sent me a few
different funeral outlines that he created and would regularly
reference when he was called to perform a funeral. When I saw the
notes I was amazed!
I QUICKLY NOTICED THAT ANYONE COULD USE THESE NOTES!
As I read through the notes I realized that the content was
exceptionalhowever it was a little bit scattered. I was quickly able
to compile a set of notes that I could use for the upcoming funeral
that I was to perform.
After the funeral was over I had many people coming up to me telling
me that they felt so much comfort and hope after hearing me speak.
Others came to me saying that they had made a commitment to Christ. I
felt that Isaiah 55:11 was true when it says that God Word does not
return void but it accomplishes what God desiresbecause I certainly
could NOT take credit for that success.
Over the next several funerals that I performed I continued to tweak
and refine the notes. I realized that each funeral would need to be
tailored slightly for that individual, so I created a way to make that
possible with little effort. Through these efforts the services were
providing hope and comfort for those that were mourning.
A FUNERAL DIRECTOR EVEN TOLD ME IT WAS THE BEST AND MOST COMFORTING
FUNERAL HE HAD BEEN TO!
A few years later a colleague of mine found himself the same
situation that I had been ingetting ready to do a funeral and feeling
unprepared. He was complementing me on my ability to connect so well
with the family and offer hope to the hurting. I simply told him about
my set of notes, and said that my job was pretty easy.
He asked me if he could have a copy of the notes. I was hesitant. It
wasn't that I didn't want to help him, but I wasn't sure how well it
would work for someone else. I didn't want to give him a false hope of
success. After pondering it I decided to give him my notes.
I happened to be at the funeral that he spoke at and I was amazed at
how well he did!
PEOPLE CAME UP TO HIM AFTER THE SERVICE WITH RENEWED SENSE OF HOPE
AND COMFORT.
He came to me after the service was over and said that so many
people were touched by the service, and he thanked me for the help. I
honestly felt like I hadn't done all that much!
Though I still wasn't sure if this set of notes could help all
ministers, I decided to make it available to a few select pastors for
their review. All I can say is that they have responded with great
appreciation.
These notes are not for someone that is simply looking for a
prewritten sermon that they can read aloud. These note are for people
that want to perform funerals that point towards a closer relationship
with Christ and offer hope to the grieving. You will need some basic
public speaking skillshowever, you don't need to be a masterI am far
from it! You simply need to be able to connect one thought with the
next in a logical manner.
