Anyone who has lost someone and is still carrying it. Caregivers and hospice families. Doctors, nurses, and chaplains. Anyone who has ever sat with the question: am I living the way I actually want to live?
For more than twenty years, a palliative care physician sat at bedsides as patients approached the end of their lives. And he listened. What they told him — sometimes in words, sometimes in silence — were the most urgent lessons he had ever received. Not about death. About how to live. Part memoir, part medicine, part spiritual awakening — this book carries the final words of the dying as a gift to the living. Endorsed by a Buddhist monk, a Catholic priest, a Lutheran pastor, and an Episcopalian — because these lessons belong to everyone.
For: Anyone who has lost someone and is still carrying it. Caregivers and hospice families. Doctors, nurses, and chaplains. Anyone who has ever sat with the question: Am I living the way I actually want to live?
Enter the Temple of Silence
If you have ever wanted a contemplative practice but were not sure meditation belonged in your faith tradition — this book was written for you.
Meditation is not foreign to Christianity — it is rooted in it, traceable to the time of Christ. In this gentle, practical guide, readers of every tradition learn how to enter the silence that has always been available to them. Part history, part instruction, part poetry — this book opens a door many did not know was there.
For: Christians curious about meditation. Anyone who finds the word meditation uncomfortable but is drawn to stillness. Interfaith seekers. Small groups and book clubs.
