Tragically, every 16 minutes someone in the United States chooses death by selfmurder. Particularly affecting young people, suicide was recently determined to be the third leading cause of death for those aged 10-24. Too Soon to Say Goodbye offers a renewal of courage and faith for families and friends grieving this inconceivable loss. Written by three women all uniquely affected by suicide, the book explores the aftermath from a wide range of real stories. Specially selected Scripture passages and Bible stories demonstrate God's love and compassion in times of sorrow. Additional insights from those who have walked on the brink of suicide address difficult questions. And for those who may be considering suicide, the authors offer encouragement to choose life over death.
