Book Overview
The Best Way to Find Meaning in Life Is to Get Honest About Death
Life expectancy worldwide is twice what it was a hundred years ago. And because of modern medicine, many of us don't often see death up close. That makes it easy to live as if death is someone else's problem. Ignoring the certainty of death doesn't protect us from feeling its effects throughout the lives we're living now--but it does hold us back from experiencing the powerful, everyday relevance of Jesus's promises to us. So long as death remains remote and unreal, Jesus's promises will too. But honesty about death brings hope to life. That's the ironic claim at the heart of this book. Cultivating death awareness helps us bring the promises of Jesus from the hazy clouds of some other world into the everyday realities of our world, where they belong.
Insightful and Accessible: Draws from many sources, including research from science and psychology, and examples from literature, pop culture, theology, and Scripture Christ-Centered Encouragement for Life and Loss: Teaching what the Bible says about identity, futility, and grief, McCullough offers hope that is tied to the promises of God Replaces ISBN 978-1-4335-6053-8Customer Reviews
