You were created to live forever

Death. Everyone fears it. No one can escape it. But, thankfully, God has a plan--an indescribable, eternal life waiting for you.

Hopeful, biblical, and filled with encouragement, Everlasting Life shines a light on death and the afterlife that will bring comfort and peace to those who are facing it or to those who want to be ready for it when it does come. David Swanson shares the simple truth that you are immortal--you will never spiritually die--and shows you how seeing life through your immortality can radically change the way you live.

"Knowing the one person who conquered death is the source of the only true hope in bringing consolation to the grieving heart. Since it is inevitable that we will all deal with loss in this life, having the skills to rest secure in the hope we have in Christ is a precious gift David helps you unpack."--Vonette Bright, cofounder, Campus Crusade for Christ International/Cru

"Swanson has not only faithfully addressed the core fear we all share--the fear of death--he has thrown open the curtains on the great hope that is ours through the work of Jesus."--Scotty Smith, pastor and author ofEveryday Prayers

"Everlasting Life tackles the challenging subjects of facing death, the spiritual process of dying, and what the glorious but mysterious afterlife of heaven might be like from a biblical perspective."--Bob DeVries andSusan Zonnebelt-Smeenge, authors of Getting to the Other Side of Grief

"Swanson offers comfort to the grieving, gives insight to the comforter, and shares the gospel with those who do not yet believe in Christ. He helps the reader face the fact of his or her own death and addresses why death is in the world."--David Wiersbe, author of Gone but Not Lost
