YPSILANTI, Mich., Oct. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Author Marti Scott tackles a difficult subject in Suicide -- The Biblical View: How To Biblically Handle Disappointment, Discouragement, Defeat, Depression, and Despair ($21.99, paperback, 9781662885228; $38.99, 9781662885235, dust jacket; $9.99, e-book, 9781662885242).
Scott's brother committed suicide. After the initial shock and grief, she became preoccupied with analyzing the act in the light of God's Word and His revelation. In this book, she presents her findings, including interviews from others who have lost loved ones to suicide, some who have contemplated taking their own lives, and a study into biblical characters who wanted to die. Scott provides hope through an abundance of Scripture.
"What help and hope is offered in the Bible to hurting people? I sought answers to these questions so that I could help troubled people find the help they need," said Scott.
