Finishing Well: Learning to Live Through Terminal Illness

by John Eaves

Finishing Well: Learning to Live Through Terminal Illness by John Eaves When John Eaves received news that his severe stomach pains were actually stage 4 colon cancer, he had a decision to make: would he live life fully to the glory of God, or would he retreat in the face of death? Ultimately, how John lived out the remaining days of his life was no different than his months and years prior to this devistating news. He had always been a man of integrity, faith, compassion, and love. That did not change when his trust in God was rocked to its core. John kept his closest friends and family updated about his physical condition, and more importantly his spiritual condition, through a series of emails. These messages collected in Finishing Well are filled with poignancy, hope, and the truth about God's plan for His children in death. As these emails were forwarded round the world, many found healing in their words. If you or a loved one are facing tragedy today, this intimate message of God's provision in the lives of his beloved, even in the face of death, will be balm to a hurting soul.
