May 18, 2020 Show with Paul Tautges on “A Small Book for the Hurting Heart: Meditations on Loss, Grief, & Healing”

The Radio Program Opens and Introduces the Theme of Mutual Edification

Live from the historic parsonage of the 19th century gospel minister George Norcross in downtown Carlisle, Pennsylvania, it's Iron Sharpens Iron. This is a radio platform in which pastors, Christian scholars, and theologians address the burning issues facing the church and the world today.

Proverbs chapter 27 verse 17 tells us iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. Matthew Henry said that in this passage we are cautioned to take heed with whom we converse and directed to have a view in conversation to make one another wiser and better.

It is our hope that this goal will be accomplished over the next two hours and we hope to hear from you the listener with your own questions. And now here's your host Chris Arnzen.

Good afternoon Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, Lake City, Florida, and the rest of humanity living on the planet earth who are listening via live streaming at ironsharpensironradio .com. This is Chris Arnzen, your host of Iron Sharpens Iron Radio, wishing you all a happy Monday on this 18th day of May 2020.

And I am thrilled to have back as a returning guest today Paul Tauches, who is senior pastor of Cornerstone Community Church in Mayfield Heights, Ohio, series editor for Lifeline Mini Books, a blogger at counselingoneanother .com, an author of many books including Comforting the Grieving, Counseling One Another, Brass Heavens, and the book that we are going to be addressing today, A Small Book for the Hurting Heart, Meditations on Loss, Grief, and Healing.

And it's my honor and privilege to welcome you back.

To Iron Sharpens Iron Radio, Paul Tauches. Thanks so much Chris, it's always a joy to be with you and love talking with you and talking about books and talking about most of all the gospel.

If anybody would like to join us on the air with a question of your own, our email address is chrisarnsen at gmail .com, c-h-r-i-s-a-r-n-z-e-n at gmail .com, and as always please give us at least your first name, your city and state of residence, and your country of residence if you live outside the USA.

Please only remain anonymous if your question involves a personal and private matter, and obviously a theme like this would easily lend itself to folks having personal and private questions, so you may feel free to remain anonymous for those questions.

And what I wanted to do before, as I always do, before we go into the theme of the book today, please let our listeners know something about Cornerstone Community Church.

In Mayfield Heights, Ohio. Yes, Cornerstone has been around now for 30 years. I'm the second pastor here. We're part of the Evangelical Free Church of America, so the EFCA, and my family and I moved here five years ago, and we're just...

Great, and for those of you who want to explore.

The website of this church so you can learn more about it, go to cornerstonemayfield .org, cornerstonemayfield .org, and this little book looks like it's going to be a treasure trove of helpful guidance and comfort and counsel in spite of its small size.

I want to just read a couple of the commendations written by some wonderful folks. In fact, the first one, Johnny Erickson Tada, if anybody has had her share of suffering in life, and if anybody has had a hurting heart at times in her life, it has certainly been Johnny Erickson Tada, and Johnny says, When we hurt and ask God why, we often are not looking for answers.

Rather, our hearts are looking for comfort, encouragement, and fatherly assurance that our world is not spinning out of control in his new work. A small book for the hurting heart, my friend Paul Touches points the reader to helpful insights from the best answer of all, the Lord Jesus.

Every page is filled with bite-sized wisdom from the word of God, providing healing hope for every heart that hurts. I heartily endorse this small but power-packed book. And of course, Edward T. Welch, who is the author of a small book for the anxious heart, and he's on the faculty at Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation, also known as CCEF.

He says, Grief is sometimes too burdensome to search for direction and comfort in scripture. We want the encouragement of scripture, but don't want, but don't have the energy to find just the right passages.

In this little book, Paul has found those right passages and brought us into them so that they can be brought into us. And David Murray, who is actually a personal friend of mine, who I've interviewed on this program, and who gave me his own book on depression, not long after my own wife passed away and went home to be with Christ for eternity.

David, who's on the faculty at the Puritan Reform Theological Seminary in Grand Rapids, Michigan, who is a professor of practical theology there, and the author of Christians Get Depressed Too, and Reset, Living a Grace-Based Life in a Burnout Culture.

He says, a small book, but massive comfort. I'm so thankful for the rivers of spiritual healing that will flow through this beautiful daily devotional into many wounded hearts. And last but not least, I want to read an endorsement from another friend of mine who I've interviewed quite a number of times here on the show.

In fact, we are going to be interviewing him soon, God willing, on a new project he's working on. But Nate Pikulitz, who's an author and pastor of Harvest Bible Church in Gillington, Ironworks, New Hampshire.

He says, loss, grief, and sadness are common human experiences and no less common in the Christian life. In seeking comfort, it can be extremely hard to find. That's why I'm thankful for Paul Tauch's new book, A Small Book for the Hurting Heart.

In the course of 50 devotions, Paul brings the hurting believer by the hand right into the pages of scripture and shows them where true comfort is to be found. He skillfully applies carefully selected verses to counsel the reader and ease their burden.

I would encourage you to prayerfully give this book to those who are hurting, but keep a copy for yourself for when sorrows come. That's excellent counsel, and in fact, even though a person who wants to comfort others might frequently and readily gain much benefit from reading a massive tome on the subject, very rarely does somebody who is actually the one who is hurting, very rarely is someone like that mentally capable of sitting down and wading through a large book, and this small size makes it perfect for that very reason.

Am I not correct on that?

Grief, Loss, and the Need for a Small Devotional

Yeah, that's really ending that one really quickly when you're visiting people in hospice, that you know they've been really in a healthy... Now those that have hurting hearts come from a.

Wide spectrum of backgrounds and circumstances. Who will benefit most from your devotion?

Well, really anyone who has been experiencing any sort of loss. Of course, we often think when we hear the word loss, we must know that's really something that... Yeah, that's excellent.

Because I've heard from quite a number of people, and of course each individual is unique and responds to pain and responds to all kinds of things in different ways, but I've heard that divorce can frequently be even more painful than mourning the death of a loved one because you have that person who has abandoned you, still alive, still out there, perhaps moving on with their life, and it could just really magnify the pain.

Yes, and that's where, you know, the truth.

Of God's word is so... And also to point our eyes to... You served not only as a pastor and a counselor,.

But as a hospice chaplain, as you were just mentioning before. Does the weight of the grief.

Of those around you ever become overwhelming to you? Yes, I don't really serve in that way regularly anymore, though I did in the early years of my pastoral ministry, and I did often find myself overwhelmed.

You realize that you're not a reservoir... And we brought this up in previous.

Interviews, but grief has struck your own family in a deep way recently. Would you mind sharing.

About your own grief journey? Yeah, last year, 2019, was a really difficult year for our family. The manuscript, Another Christmas With Him, and His grace, that side, can cling to them.

I would hope that my listeners hearing this would pray for your family. Thank you. Continue to pray as you continue, I'm sure, to experiencing the pain of the loss that you've experienced. The loss is...

And I'm hoping that, obviously, as you hope for others, that the Lord gives everyone in your.

Family the peace that surpasses all understanding. Yes, St. Paul says about... In your book, you.

Relentlessly connect God's comfort to the gospel. Why is that important? Well, I think that,.

You know, when we feel as though God is far away, one of the most important truths for us is not that God draws near to us more than the gospel, and lived a sinless life, and took that sin, opening open the actual truth that strengthens us.

Amen to that. In Psalm 56, verse 8,.

We read that God keeps track of our sorrows and collects our tears. Why are our tears.

That important to God? Yeah, that verse, Psalm 56, 8, became so precious to me after my mom passed away 10 years ago. Praise God, definitely. In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus preaches that.

Blessed are those who mourn. In what ways are we blessed at times of great grief? One of the ways.

We are blessed in times of grief, sometimes in ourselves, we don't need to turn inward, because blessed are those who return to the Lord, but also when we are returning to him. We're going right now to our first station break, and if anybody would like to join us on the air.

With a question, we do have some folks waiting in line to ask questions of you, and have you answer them, but if anybody would like to get in line so that you can further ensure that you will have your questions asked and answered on the air, please send an email to chrisarnsen at gmail .com, c-h-r-i-s-a-r-n-z-e-n at gmail .com, and as always, give us your first name, your city and state, and your country of residence, if you live outside the USA, and please only remain anonymous if your question involves a personal and private matter.

Hi, this is John Sampson, pastor of King's Church in Peoria, Arizona. Taking a moment of your day to talk about Chris Arnzen and the Iron Sharpens Iron podcast. I consider Chris a true friend and a man of high integrity.

If you'd like to join us with a question of your own our email address is chrisarnson at gmail .com chrisarnson at gmail .com. And as always give us your first name at least your city and state of residence and your country of residence.

If you live outside the usa only remain anonymous if your question involves a personal and private matter. And paul. A classic text in the scriptures from isaiah 53 is that jesus is the man of sorrows.

In fact one of my favorite quotes from the great 19th century evangelical anglican bishop jc ryle is jesus is the man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. None have such an opportunity of learning the mind of a suffering savior as suffering disciples that's burned into my memory and i i try to recall that not only when i am in pain myself but when i'm trying to comfort others.

But how is seeing jesus in this way a comfort when we are grappling with grief.

Yeah as you were saying that i just couldn't help but think of the apostle paul's longing expressed in philippians through him in the fellowship by priests. As the prophet said in the old testament god cannot look turned away and jesus has no sadness there's no hurt there's no loss that that the lord jesus does.

He's that empathetic high priest too. And in fact we have.

A very relevant question uh from a listener on this. Uh we have susan margaret in dalton county pennsylvania and susan margaret says. I know that it is true god breathed words from hebrews chapter 4 verse 15.

For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses but one who has been tempted in all things as we are yet without sin. My question regarding this is that even though i do believe it is absolutely true i have trouble really wrapping my mind around it because jesus christ although he became very much like us in his humanity is very very different from us since he is not only fully man but fully god.

How do you further convince others in this truth which is one of the great mysteries of the.

Scripture. Yes i'm glad you use the word mystery because um right there you know by referring to it as a biblical mystery we we recognize that uh that is something we cannot fully recognize and even fully appreciate uh but to know from the scriptures that the humanity of human we think that's one of the best ways to help for transparent we ourselves can't.

The truths are too great uh for us to even comprehend. I mean the firm the word of hope.

Well thank you so much susan margaret. And please make sure that we have your full mailing address in dalton county pennsylvania because you have won a free copy of the book we are discussing. That's paul touches new book a small book for the hurting heart meditations on lost grief and healing.

And that is compliments of our friends at new growth press and also compliments of our friends at cumberland valley bible book services who will be shipping that book out to you at no charge. To you or to iron sharpens iron radio.

So uh thanks for the great question. Keep listening and keep submitting wonderful questions to the program. Uh let's see. Here we have uh arnie in perry county pennsylvania. And arnie says when we are in the midst of deep sin and we have not fully repented of this and we keep getting drawn back to it and we are experiencing overwhelming pain crying out to the lord does he hear our prayers.

And i guess i'm assuming that arnie is specifically speaking about the fact that the person who he is describing is still sinning. I mean we all sin of course. But perhaps this is a a very scandalous uh very extremely rebellious.

Sin yeah that answer uh the question has to be answered i think in two different ways truly born again uh brass heavens person's attitude toward that and leaving over this.

Uh well thank you arnie and please make sure we have your full mailing address in perry county pennsylvania because you have also won a free copy of a small book for the hurting heart. Compliments of our friends at new growth press and compliments of our friends at cbbbs .com who will actually be mailing that to you.

We have an anonymous listener and not the anonymous listener says. What counsel can you give those who torment themselves knowing that their own sins from the past has brought about great loss in life that can never.

Be replaced. Yeah the pain of regret. I think that's what they're not. Is that an acceptance. Amen. And.

Let's not ever forget that the apostle paul when he was soul of tarsus murdered men and women who were christians for their faith. Yes and uh if if the lord gave him the peace to carry on not only.

As a christian but as an apostle he can do that for us as well. Well. And i'd also like to add uh chris that there have been times that i felt that way. And the most helpful thing what kind of. Senator.

And we have to go to our midway break it's a longer than normal break because grace.

Life radio 90 .1 fm in lake city florida requires of us a longer break in the middle of the show since they aired this program twice a day in a pre-recorded format in morning drive and in the evening.

And they have to according to fcc regulations localize this program to lake city florida by airing their own public service announcements while we air our worldwide commercials those that are heard globally via live streaming.

So please use this time wisely write down the information provided by our advertisers so that you can more frequently and successfully patronize them which will keep them happy and hopefully keep them our advertisers so that we can remain on the air because we require their funding to exist.

But also write down questions for paul touches on the hurting heart and send them to chris arnson at gmail .com. Chris arnson at gmail .com. I'm going to lead into this midway break right now with a song.

Don't worry i'm not going to sing it. Uh i'm sure that the vast majority of you know who little richard was. Richard wayne penniman was his real name and i just found out that he passed away at the age of 87.

He was someone who is well known to have been battling demons most of his life. And it seemed like his his life was on a pendulum swinging back and forth in and out of the faith. He struggled and committed very atrocious sins such as homosexuality and was involved in orgies and drug abuse and all kinds of things.

I was so encouraged when i saw a recent interview with him on television before he passed where he was once again speaking with a strong voice of a committed repentant christian and renouncing sin. So it is my hope that he is in eternity with christ at this moment.

And i'm going to play a song for you now that is a very little known song by this man. This song would not come up on your typical google search of little richard like good golly uh miss molly and uh tutti frutti.

Oh rudy uh this is a song with eternal significance. What am i supposed to do without jesus. And i hope you all while listening to it reflect on those words yourself especially perhaps those who are listening who do not yet know jesus christ is their lord and savior.

Little richard as i said before just recently passed away. Born december 5th 1932 died may 9th 2020. I'm dr tony costa professor of apologetics and islam at toronto baptist seminary. I'm thrilled.

To introduce to you a church where i've been invited to speak and have grown to love hope reform baptist church in corum long island new york pastored by rich jensen and chris for mcdowell. It's such a joy to witness and experience fellowship with people of god like the dear saints at hope reform baptist church in quorum who have an intensely passionate desire to continue digging deeper and deeper into the unfathomable riches of christ in his holy word and to enthusiastically proclaim christ jesus the king and his doctrines of sovereign grace in suffolk county long island and beyond.
