How to Benefit From a Funeral, by Dr. David P. Murray
The text for this sermon is Ecclesiastes 7:2:
"It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart."
Recommended poem:
"I walked a mile with pleasure,
She chattered all the way.
But left me none the wiser,
For all she had to say.
I walked a mile with sorrow,
And ne'er a word said she.
But O the things I learned from her,
When Sorrow walked with me!"
- Robert Browning Hamilton
