Beyond the Winter Night
Hope in the face of death
Elaine Brown
An invaluable book on facing up to death as a Christian. Elaine Brown writes movingly and convincingly on a topic not often dealt with in Christian literature. Beyond death is a wonderful experience for the believer, but death itself is an enemy - our last enemy. Presented from various points of view, the author deals with the reactions of several Christians to the death of loved ones, or knowing what they themselves have a terminal illness. We are brought to identify vividly with each story as it is told in personal terms. By no means does each believer triumph easily over the problems; we are shown the anguish and heartache as well as the joy and peace in believing. This is not an easy book to read, but it is not morbid and it is one I would keep and read again and again.
