Packing for the Big Trip: Life Benefits from Death Awareness

Rating:
Summary: Just what I needed.
Review: This book was referred to me by a friend following the loss of my mother, and I have recommended it to several other friends since reading it. While I didn't agree with 100% of the book's contents, I could accept about 99%--and it spoke to me in a way that the typical sappy support-type books can't even approach. While it's certainly written for people of all faiths--even atheists or agnostics--Christians who enjoy unique theological viewpoints will benefit especially. If your heart needs more than sympathy to deal with the pain of death, this book offers a great deal of wisdom.
