Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Four thousand years ago, amid tragic suffering and death, Job asked the question of the ages: “If a man dies, will he live again?” Since the dawn of history, the subject of death and the afterlife has been the great question of human existence. It’s a subject that everyone wonders about. What lies behind the veil of death? Is there really life after death? Is there a place called hell? This small yet power-packed book answers, in a very straightforward, reader-friendly format, all the most-asked questions ordinary people have about death, near-death experiences, cremation, purgatory, hell, heaven, and our future bodies. You’ll be amazed at what awaits us beyond the grave. Is There Sex in Heaven? It’s a fair question! And so are the rest. Go ahead…flip to the table of contents. Discover another one, two, or fifty-four others that are guaranteed to intrigue you. Questions like: Do those in heaven know what’s happening on earth? and Will I see my pets in heaven? Because even if you’d rather avoid the topic, death will not avoid you. So fire away! Ask the tough questions, and get the dead-on answers you need. Straightforward and easy to read, 55 Answers to Questions About Life After Death satisfies that nagging, curious voice whispering from the corner of your mind. Story Behind the Book “Three key experiences in my life have come together to make this book a reality. First, as the pastor of a local church for thirteen years, I have had the privilege of visiting people who are facing imminent death, conducting funerals, and ministering to grieving families. During these times people often have probing questions about life after death. Second, due to my interest and writing in the area of Bible prophecy, I am frequently asked questions about the afterlife at conferences and via e-mail. Third, all kinds of books, TV shows, and groups out there today are fostering unbiblical views of life after death. Knowing that this is a subject of universal interest and great confusion, I have a passionate desire to create a user-friendly, clear, straightforward resource to answer all the key questions that people everywhere are asking about life’s greatest mystery.”

Pages : 257
Book Description
A First Nations man helps his estranged father find a place to die in this novel by the award-winning author of One Drum and Indian Horse. “Richard Wagamese is a born storyteller.”—Louise Erdrich When Franklin Starlight is called to visit his father, he has mixed emotions. Raised by the old man he was entrusted to soon after his birth, Frank is haunted by the brief and troubling moments he has shared with his father, Eldon. When he finally travels by horseback to town, he finds Eldon on the edge of death, decimated from years of drinking. The two undertake a difficult journey into the mountainous backcountry, in search of a place for Eldon to die and be buried in the warrior way. As they travel, Eldon tells his son the story of his own life—from an impoverished childhood to combat in the Korean War and his shell-shocked return. Through the fog of pain, Eldon relates to his son these desolate moments, as well as his life’s fleeting but nonetheless crucial moments of happiness and hope, the sacrifices made in the name of love. And in telling his story, Eldon offers his son a world the boy has never seen, a history he has never known. “Deeply felt and profoundly moving…written in the kind of sure, clear prose that brings to mind the work of the great North American masters; Steinbeck among them.”—Jane Urquhart, award-winning author of The Night Stages “A novel about the role of stories in our lives, those we tell ourselves about ourselves and those we agree to live by.”—Globe and Mail

Now That I Am Dead
Author: Enrique A Cordero
Publisher: Enrique A. Cordero
ISBN: 1704725232
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Unlike the author’s first book, It’s Hard to Die! “Do I Hold On or Do I Let Go?” which focuses on the practical and clinical aspects of the dying process—this book presents the subject from a metaphysical and transcendental approach. It addresses issues that impact the mental, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of the dying person, their family, and friends. It is difficult to step outside our comfort zone—our place of refuge, that little corner in our minds that offers solitude and protection from the unfamiliar. Our comfort zone is our reality, and we protect it from intrusion—especially when it comes to thoughts of death and dying. If you or a loved one are facing end-of-life issues, this book may help to alleviate the uncertainties and anguish felt during this most heart-rending time. As distressing questions and situations arise you may be forced to make difficult decisions regarding some various issues: Am I playing God? | Letting go or hanging on | What happens during the dying process? | Fear of dying | Grief and bereavement | Funeral? Burial? Cremation? | Being at peace with your religious and spiritual beliefs | What happens after death? Perhaps embracing new ideas will open our minds and hearts to myriad possibilities. A deeper understanding of the viewpoints of other religions, cultures, and ethnicities will help us become more understanding, compassionate, and respectful of the needs and wishes of the dying person. Are you ready to journey beyond your comfort zone?
