About the Author

Johann Christoph Arnold is the author of best-selling titles on sexuality, parenting, death and dying, forgiveness and peace. His books draw chiefly on his experiences as a pastor, and on wisdom gleaned from a lifetime of counceling couples and singles, teens and young adults, prison inmates, the aged and terminally ill.

Reviews

Publishers Weekly 'Arnold writes in a prayerful and simple way.' Paul Brand, MD author, Pain: The Gift Nobody Wants 'I have read many books about dying, but this is the one I would give to a person approaching death or facing bereavement. From start to finish it shines with hope! I want a copy beside my bed when my time comes.' Andrew Fergusson, MB, MRCGP, CMF 'This is a challenging little book which every health professional should read.'
