Posted by Christopher Frazier on March 25, 2006 -->
Overcoming the Fear of Death
Johann Christoph Arnold




In Be Not Afraid, Arnold addresses fears that every person faces - fear of illness, aging, death and loss, fear of vulnerability, and fear of suffering.

A pastor who has worked with the dying for three decades, Arnold knows that each of us must meet death in our own unique way. Yet through stories of people he has known and counseled as a pastor, relative, or friend, he shows how all suffering can be given meaning, and despair overcome. These real-life stories offer sure proof that even today, in our culture of isolation and death, there is reason for hope.

Paul Brand, M.D, author, Pain: The Gift Nobody Wants
I have read many books about dying, but this is the one I would give to someone approaching death or facing bereavement. From start to finish it shines with hope. I want a copy beside my bed when my time comes.

Jonathan Kozol, author, Ordinary Resurrections
This is a beautiful book of surpassing dignity and tenderness…I hope it will be widely read, not only by those who call themselves religious. Although written with great simplicity of style, it is nonetheless a work of moral mystery…a small treasure, unpretentious and transcendent.

Dame Cicely Saunders, Founder, St. Christopher’s Hospice, London
There are many books available by people bereaved of someone they loved, but this one has a special strength.
