As I read each chapter I wished I had this book decades ago as a
young pastor, ministering to the dying. I wished I had this book
when my younger brother and father died. There is rich wisdom in
these pages that echo wisdom from ages past when dying and death
could not be easily avoided. Most importantly, this wisdom is
grounded in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. Read Tim's
book on death. It will make you more alive.--Timothy S. Lane
President, Institute for Pastoral Care
There is a long Christian tradition that has encouraged believers
to spend time preparing for the realities of death. This is not a
morbid impulse, but rather a wise attempt to finish well and
faithfully. Drawing on scripture, insights from psychology, and
theological truths, Tim Sisemore's book gently guides readers
through the complexity of dealing with death, grief, hope, and
promise. In these pages many will find real comfort and
strength.--Kelly M. Kapic Author of Embodied Hope: A Theological
Meditation on Pain and Suffering and Professor of Theological
Studies, Covenant College, Lookout Mountain, Georgia
