I Tell You a Mystery by Johann Christoph Arnold

This best-selling volume addresses fears every human faces - vulnerability, illness, aging, and dying. Yet at its core this book is more about living than dying. Arnold says living for a cause greater than ourselves enables us to face eternity with the strength that comes from faith. Drawing on stories of people he has known and counseled as pastor, relative, or friend, Arnold shows how suffering can be given meaning, and despair overcome. He offers the assurance that even today, in our culture of isolation and death, there is hope. As you read, you'll meet individuals who lived life to the fullest by serving others.
Madeleine L'Engle I wish a friend had put this beautiful book in my hands when my husband diedSue Elkins, BBC Radio The stories are certainly moving; there's a sense of facing death without fear, and of finding meaning in the death of someone close to you. I think it's as much about living as about dying.
