Yet underground communities continue to gather in secret, preserving truth through memorized verses and hidden symbols passed from one believer to another.

Can any good come from thinking about death? Our natural tendency is to answer that question no! But what if our meditation on death was informed by a theological understanding of death, a recognition of the comfort Jesus's death affords Christians, and ethical guidance for dealing with death in these complicated days of modern medical developments?
