From a Puritan minister who faced many sufferings in his life, including the death of his first – and second wife, along with persecution, comes this volume of outstanding counsel, originally titled “A Token for Mourners.”

The work is intended to provide biblical comfort to ‘godly mourners’. This book is full of Scripture, counsel, warning, and wisdom gained from prayerful reflection on the personal experience of affliction in loss and grief.

For over 150 years Flavel’s Token for Mourners was printed and re-printed in England and America. The times demanded that the heart-breaking experience of the loss of children be faced by most parents. And generations of Christian parents found comfort through this little book.
