Giving life to the liturgy

This is a very powerful book which lends new insight into the Episcopal liturgy and the grieving process.

Gleason uses the narrative form to probe theology of death.

In Dying We Live, Gleason puts a face on death by sharing stories of people whose deaths were made more meaningful thanks to their faith. Using the Episcopal Church's Burial Rite, he shares intimate portraits of people when they are most real, in death. He finishes the book with the ultimate Christian paradox, it is only in dying that we live
