Clay Jones, a professor of Christian apologetics, examines the many ways of facing death and how our ‘immortality projects’ are largely unsuccessful, even destructive. He also points to the hope of the only true immortality available to all.
  Is There Life After Death?
 
For many, death is terrifying. We try to live as long as possible while hoping that science will soon find a way to allow us to live, if not forever, then at least a very long time.
 
Whether we deny our mortality though literal or symbolic immortality or try to turn death into something benign, our attempts fail us. But what if the real solution is not in denying death’s reality, but in acknowledging it while enjoying a hope for a wonderful forever?
 
Clay Jones, a professor of Christian apologetics, explores the ways people face death and how these “immortality projects” are unsuccessful, even destructive. Along the way, he points to the hope of the only true immortality available to all—the truth that God already offers a path to our hearts’ deepest longing: glorious resurrection to eternal life.

“Honest, hard-hitting, unflinching—this book dares to tackle the uncomfortable topic of death but does so with creativity, wisdom, grace, and hope. You’ll cheer my friend Clay Jones for his insights, compassion, and wit. But most importantly, you’ll walk away grasping the only truth that can ultimately save you.”
—Lee Strobel, bestselling author of The Case for Christ and The Case for Faith
