At the Edge of Life: Conversations When Death is Near

by Richard L. Morgan

Drawing on 60 years of experience as pastor, hospice chaplain, volunteer, and friend to dying persons, Richard Morgan offers perspective and advice to people coping with a family member, friend, or patient who is approaching the time of death. These 30 meditations take us from accepting our own mortality and the impending death of someone we care about through “making preparations," “finding closure,” and “dying moments.” In each meditation Morgan uses personal stories and scripture to lead into a reflection question and prayer. The result is a sense of peace that gives readers confidence as companions to the dying.

Peace at the end of life

At the Edge of Life is a lovely book about finding and giving peace at the end of life. Highly recommend for those searching for resources to deal with the passing of a loved one.
