A collection of writings from classical and contemporary theologians and Bible teachers encouraging believers to face death with a firm and confident belief in the character and promises of God.
Death is a divine appointment. It is part of God's purpose in our lives. Jesus holds the keys to death - because he owns the keys... 22 short meditations drawn from the writings and sermons of classic & contemporary pastors and theologians.
This book is quick read with a variety of different authors. It is organized well and the selected works is robust. Some of the areas do not go as deep as one would wish. That being said, it is a great addition to a personal library. I look forward to using it to help people wrestle with their views on what happens when they die. ( )

I am not afraid to look the king of terrors in the face, For I know I shall be drawn, not driven, out of the world.
Until then let me continually glow and burn out for thee, and when the last great change shall come, let me awake in thy likeness.
THE VALLEY OF VISION
Give me to know that heaven is all love, where the eye affects the heart, and the continual viewing of thy beauty keeps the soul in continual transports of delight.
Give me to know that heaven is all peace, where error, pride, rebellion, passion raise no head.
Give me to know that heaven is all joy, the end of believing, fasting, praying, mourning, humbling, watching, fearing, repining;
And lead me to it soon.

I fondly dedicate this book to my sister in Christ, Marion Williams Kelley (1929-2009). I had the privilege of sharing the first few chapters of this book with Marion in her final days on this earth. Her joy in these truths, her determination to die well, and her courageous confidence in God's promises, were a living demonstration of the aim of this book, and an inspiration to me as I worked on it.
