M. R. Mercer invites us to reflect upon life, death and Christian faith in the latter portion of our lives. In a world that seems intent on ignoring mortality, he encourages us to engage the reality of our human limits reflectively, and with deep faith and hope. To live well, he argues, we must include in our thinking the truth that we won't live forever. ""In this short work, Dr. Mercer displays his unique ability to speak to his own frailty and fear of death while bringing hope and comfort to his audience. His reflections are steeped in his sturdy but flexible Biblical faith, and brought to light through poignant imagery and everyday experiences. Dr. Mercer has been an invaluable colleague, mentor, and teacher to myself and many others, and through this work you will find yourself drawn into his deep repository of wisdom.""-Stephen Blackmore, Incumbent Priest, St. Matthew's Anglican Church, Islington, TorontoM.
