How can we learn to live with the hard fact of death? Some may find strength in religious faith, but growing numbers of us are not religious. When grieving or grappling with the prospect of our own end, how can we find solace? These questions led award-winning writer and atheist Valerie Jack on a quest to meet non-religious people facing loss and illness. In Living with Death without God you will hear their stories - which beautifully illuminate how, even in the most difficult circumstances, we can find comfort, hope and meaning. If you are asking yourself how best to live, given the fact of death, if you're looking for companionship as you travel your road, then welcome - these stories are for you. 'For those of us with a naturalistic approach to life, death is a full stop. The stories and reflections in this wonderful book help deal with that fact with a thoughtfulness, warmth and breadth that should give comfort and meaning to all.' Andrew Copson, Chief Executive of Humanists UK 'Montaigne taught us that if we refuse to be cowed by the inevitability of death, we become free to live life to the full. In Living with Death without God, Valerie Jack has woven a vivid tapestry from the stories of many brave people who learned to do just that. Grief can of course be hard to bear, even overwhelming, whether the bereaved be religious or not. But reminding us throughout these sensitively and compassionately written pieces that we all leave behind our own legacy, in many different ways, helps to shine light in dark corners - especially for those who see life's end as a destination, rather than a mere staging post to somewhere else.' Trevor Moore, Chair of My Death, My Decision 'This is an essential contribution to the discourse on life, death and grief. As a transpersonal psychotherapist this deeply resonated with my own experience, both personally and professionally - that living a life with a sense of meaning and purpose is not dependent on faith in some external being, but more about connecting to the universality in us all.' Annie Broadbent, author of Speaking of Death 'We are all unique beings and as we face our own death, we need to know we will be remembered but also to remember we will eventually be forgotten. This book helps us make sense of that truth for ourselves and our loved ones. I highly recommend this book for anyone at any stage of life, there is much to enrich and support our wider life journey towards our death.' Katrina Taee, author of Surviving the Tsunami of Grief 'For most people, death is unthinkable-so they simply don't think about it. Great visions of the next world have been created to avoid doing what Valerie Jack has done here: looking squarely at the idea that our existence truly ends through the eyes of human beings who accept that most difficult fact. As you close the cover on the last story, you'll feel as though you've met humanity at its most vulnerable and honest. A moving and important contribution.' Dale McGowan, author of Parenting Beyond Belief and Raising Freethinkers

Each of us is in the middle of a story. In this astoundingly unique book, bestselling author N.D. Wilson reminds us that to truly live we must recognize that we are dying. Cause of death: life. Death by Living is a poetic exploration of faith, futility, and the incredible joy of this mortal life. N.D. Wilson recounts stories from his life in poetic prose, giving perspective on the life we're given by God. Death by Living explores the topics of family, grappling with the death of loved ones, and how to live with intention to get the most out of our time on Earth. Wilson encourages us to live hard and die grateful, and to see Christ in every pair of eyes. To write a past we won’t regret. All of us must pause and breathe. See the past, see life as the fruit of providence and thousands of personal narratives. We did not choose where to set our feet in time, but we choose where to set them next. We stand in the now. God says create. Live. Choose. Shape the past. Etch your life in stone, and what you make will be forever. In Death by Living, you will: Experience life with renewed wonder Recognize mundane moments as opportunities Learn to live hard and die grateful Recognize death as a gift instead of something to be feared At once inspiring, humorous, and unbelievably moving, this a book that you will read again and again, finding fresh perspective each time you open it.

A Beautiful Death is a Biblically-based book seeking to provide a down-to-earth approach to some of the toughest questions regarding Christianity. This book acknowledges that most of these questions have already been asked before, so they are not new. It is also a rebuttal to some of the most recent hostile voices against the Christian faith, such as it being irrational or outdated. This book also challenges skeptics who proclaim God cannot exist, based upon the present conditions of the world, but they offer no valid reason for why the world is the way it is, and why it would be better without God. In doing so, they ignore the deep philosophical ramifications of their actions. A God-free existence does not answer man's greatest questions. It creates bigger ones. "In order to deprive a person of humanity, you must first give up yours." - Hubert Murphy Jr. "Christianity is a very historical religion-it makes claims that are open to testing." - Lee Strobel "The Universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there's at bottom, no design, no evil, no good, nothing but blind pitless indifference." - Richard Dawkins

'Wonderful, thoughtful, practical' - Cariad Lloyd, Griefcast 'Encouraging and inspiring' - Dr Kathryn Mannix, author of Amazon bestseller With the End in Mind End-of-life doula Anna Lyons and funeral director Louise Winter have joined forces to share a collection of the heartbreaking, surprising and uplifting stories of the ordinary and extraordinary lives they encounter every single day. From working with the living, the dying, the dead and the grieving, Anna and Louise reveal the lessons they've learned about life, death, love and loss. Together they've created a profound but practical guide to rethinking the one thing that's guaranteed to happen to us all. We are all going to die, and that's ok. Let's talk about it. This is a book about life and living, as much as it's a book about death and dying. It's a reflection on the beauties, blessings and tragedies of life, the exquisite agony and ecstasy of being alive, and the fragility of everything we hold dear. It's as simple and as complicated as that.

Ronald Aronson has a mission: to demonstrate that a life without religion can be coherent, moral, and committed. Optimistic and stirring, Living Without God is less interested in attacking religion than in developing a positive philosophy for atheists, agnostics, secular humanists, skeptics, and freethinkers. Aronson proposes contemporary answers to Immanuel Kant's three great questions: What can I know? What ought I to do? What can I hope? Grounded in the sense that we are deeply dependent and interconnected beings who are rooted in the universe, nature, history, society, and the global economy, Living Without God explores the experience and issues of 21st–century secularists, especially in America. Reflecting on such perplexing questions as why we are grateful for life's gifts, who or what is responsible for inequalities, and how to live in the face of aging and dying, Living Without God is also refreshingly topical, touching on such subjects as contemporary terrorism, the war in Iraq, affirmative action, and the remarkable rise of Barack Obama.

Not since Betty Eadie’s Embraced by the Light has a personal account of a Near-Death Experience (NDE) been so utterly different from most others—or nearly as compelling. "This is a book you devour from cover to cover, and pass on to others. This is a book you will quote in your daily conversation. Storm was meant to write it and we were meant to read it." —from the foreword by Anne Rice In the thirty years since Raymond Moody’s Life After Life appeared, a familiar pattern of NDEs has emerged: suddenly floating over one’s own body, usually in a hospital setting, then a sudden hurtling through a tunnel of light toward a presence of love. Not so in Howard Storm’s case. Storm, an avowed atheist, was awaiting emergency surgery when he realized that he was at death’s door. Storm found himself out of his own body, looking down on the hospital room scene below. Next, rather than going “toward the light,” he found himself being torturously dragged to excruciating realms of darkness and death, where he was physically assaulted by monstrous beings of evil. His description of his pure terror and torture is unnerving in its utter originality and convincing detail. Finally, drawn away from death and transported to the realm of heaven, Storm met angelic beings as well as the God of Creation. In this fascinating account, Storm tells of his “life review,” his conversation with God, even answers to age-old questions such as why the Holocaust was allowed to take place. Storm was sent back to his body with a new knowledge of the purpose of life here on earth. This book is his message of hope.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Nickel and Dimed comes a brave, frank, and exquisitely written memoir that will change the way you see the world. Barbara Ehrenreich is one of the most important thinkers of our time. Educated as a scientist, she is an author, journalist, activist, and advocate for social justice. In LIVING WITH A WILD GOD, she recounts her quest-beginning in childhood-to find "the Truth" about the universe and everything else: What's really going on? Why are we here? In middle age, she rediscovered the journal she had kept during her tumultuous adolescence, which records an event so strange, so cataclysmic, that she had never, in all the intervening years, written or spoken about it to anyone. It was the kind of event that people call a "mystical experience"-and, to a steadfast atheist and rationalist, nothing less than shattering. In LIVING WITH A WILD GOD, Ehrenreich reconstructs her childhood mission, bringing an older woman's wry and erudite perspective to a young girl's impassioned obsession with the questions that, at one point or another, torment us all. The result is both deeply personal and cosmically sweeping-a searing memoir and a profound reflection on science, religion, and the human condition. With her signature combination of intellectual rigor and uninhibited imagination, Ehrenreich offers a true literary achievement-a work that has the power not only to entertain but amaze.

Perfect as a textbook yet excellent for lay readers, this updated edition builds a positive case for Christianity by applying the latest thought to core theological themes. J. Gresham Machen once said, "False ideas are the greatest obstacles to the reception of the gospel"-which makes apologetics that much more important. Wanting to engage not just academics and pastors but Christian laypeople and seekers, William Lane Craig has revised and updated key sections in this third edition of his classic text to reflect the latest work in astrophysics, philosophy, probability calculus, the arguments for the existence of God, and Reformed epistemology. His approach-that of positive apologetics-gives careful attention to crucial questions and concerns, including: the relationship of faith and reason, the existence of God, the problems of historical knowledge and miracles, the personal claims of Christ, and the historicity of the resurrection of Jesus. He shows that there is good reason to think Christianity is true. As Craig says, "If you have a sound and persuasive case for Christianity, you don't have to become an expert in comparative religions and Christian cults. A positive justification of the Christian faith automatically overwhelms all competing world views lacking an equally strong case."
