Synopsis

Join Darrel Gilbertson and Lynn Anderson as they speak from their own experiences about human mortality and the deep satisfaction of living well, right up to the end. When Darrel Gilbertson was diagnosed with a terminal illness, he and good friend Lynn Anderson chose to face their mortality head on. They entered into a series of frank, intentional conversations, especially concerned with how to live and die well. In Exit Stage Right, Gilbertson and Anderson have documented their conversations about the drama of life and death for others to read, and they have added questions and exercises for readers to use in entering the conversation, too. This book will grip readers' hearts and help articulate many of the urgent questions that too often go unstated. Far more than a fading series of reflections on death, this book is about living all of life fully.
