Realism about death

The End of the Christian Life
https://jtoddbillings.com/podcast/ 
and on all good podcast providers.

‘In my late 30s I was diagnosed with incurable cancer. It will kill me, if nothing else does first.’

Thus speaks Todd Billings, author of The End of the Christian Life and host of the podcast of the same name. He speaks with all the authority of experience about suffering, death, mourning and hope. In each episode Todd talks with someone who has a different perspective on this subject, including scholars, pastors, funeral directors, and those who also suffer with an incurable illness. The podcast carefully unpacks some of the false promises that churches explicitly or implicitly teach, and the ways we could all be better prepared to face the end of our lives.
