In Now I Lay Me Down Alone, a pastor shares personal anecdotes and the stories of others to illustrate how spirituality and faith can help in dealing with death and the subsequent journey through grief. While focusing primarily on spousal loss, Lee relies on over forty years of experience in pastoral ministry as he shares godly answers to the difficult questions that arise when an earthly life closes. In the role of pastor, he has stood over the casket nearly one hundred times, witnessing the pain of those left behind, drawing upon all he knows about the promises of God and His book of hope in order to provide comfort. While providing how-to directives, poetry, lyrics, and quotes from religious leaders and others, Lee shares the stories of everyday people who have walked directly into the agony of losing someone close and come out on the other side knowing that God has walked beside them every step of the way. Now I Lay Me Down Alone leads anyone traveling through a journey of grief to realize that comfort, understanding, and friendship come from not only those who surround you on earth, but also from up above.
