Critics Review
“Rarely has a book been needed as urgently as this one. Rarely has an author been better qualified to write it. I urge all Christians to prepare themselves to be able to provide a truly biblical response to one of the defining ethical issues of our day.” –Tim Challies, author of Seasons of Sorrow: The Pain of Loss and the Comfort of God

How Should We then Die? will help laity to understand the legal, medical, ethical, and theological matters at stake in the debate.” –Kathryn Greene-McCreight, author of Darkness Is My Only Companion: A Christian Response to Mental Illness
