When memory fades, God's presence does not.
Jesus Is with You is a gentle Christian devotional written especially for people experiencing dementia, Alzheimer's disease, and other forms of cognitive decline-and for the caregivers, family members, and pastors who walk beside them.
Written in short, simple daily readings, this book offers reassurance without pressure, faith without demands, and hope without requiring memory, comprehension, or response. Each page is designed to be read slowly, aloud if desired, and revisited again and again. Repetition is welcomed. Silence is honored. God's grace is assumed.

Rooted in the Christian conviction that nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus, these meditations emphasize Christ's nearness, gentleness, patience, and faithfulness. They are especially well suited for bedside reading, memory care settings, hospice visits, and quiet moments of prayer when words are hard to find.
This book also includes:

• A pastoral introduction for caregivers and loved ones
• Guidance for using the book in memory care and end-of-life settings
• A hymn index connecting each devotional theme with familiar United Methodist hymns
• Prayers written to be spoken on behalf of the reader when personal prayer is difficult

Jesus Is with You is not a test of faith, a lesson to master, or a story to remember. It is a companion-offering steady, loving reminders that even when memory weakens, belonging remains.

Whether you are living with memory loss or caring for someone who is, this book speaks a simple, enduring truth:
You are not forgotten.
You are not alone.
Jesus is with you.
