Remember Death: The Surprising Path to Living Hope (The Gospel Coalition) Book

Life-expectancy worldwide is twice what it was a hundred years ago. And because of modern medicine, many of us don\u2019t often see death up close. That makes it easy to live as if death is someone else\u2019s problem. It isn\u2019t.\n\nIgnoring the certainty of death doesn\u2019t protect us from feeling its effects throughout the lives we\u2019re living now. But this avoidance can hold us back from experiencing the powerful, everyday relevance of Jesus\u2019s promises to us. So long as death remains remote and unreal, Jesus\u2019s promises will too.\n\nBut honesty about death brings hope to life. That\u2019s the ironic claim at the heart of this book. Cultivating \u201Cdeath-awareness\u201D helps us bring the promises of Jesus from the hazy clouds of some other world into the everyday problems of our world\u2014where they belong.\nNEW Books from family run Booksellers. \nOur carefully selected titles are in stock and posted in either cardboard packaging or other protective enve.
