Perry Biddle (1933–2011) was an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church (USA) who served congregations in Tennessee, Alabama, and Mississippi. He was also a graduate of Union Theological Seminary and Vanderbilt Divinity School. He authored many practical resources for pastoral work.
This book features the new Presbyterian liturgy 'The Funeral: A Service of Witness to the Resurrection.' There is a new sermon for the funeral of one who completed suicide, plus a section of suggested readings on suicide. The music for funerals has been revised and supplemented. Appropriate Scripture passages are included.
