Hello my lovely readers! Death and religion? You know I immediately started reading this book! Let's get into it.
SYNOPSIS
When we’re standing at the gravesite, death gives little closure and leaves many questions unanswered. Despite the common claim that “dying is just a natural part of life,“ people seem to avoid this unsettling subject more than ever. Yet the Bible doesn’t shy away from the reality of death. God’s Word has the answers we need to face the grave with confidence in our risen Redeemer. In this book, Dr. Guy Waters provides the Bible’s answers to essential questions about death, dying, and what comes after this life. Here is balm for the grieving, counsel for caretakers, and guidance to help God’s people rest in Christ’s victory as we come to life’s final battle.
MY THOUGHTS
This was an incredibly fascinating and comforting read!
Obviously I'm interested in death and dying, as I want to be a funeral director in my second career. But seeing death from the Biblical perspective truly comforted me because honestly, it was something I always wondered about as a Christian. Yes, I've fully read the Bible through, numerous times, but I felt like I didn't get a definitive answer on death. I guess I wasn't paying attention enough, as it's mentioned multiple times in the Bible, but it's scattered about.
This book compiles all those verses about death in an easy-to-read informational guide and I'm thankful for it. I feel so much better about dying now, having read this book.
