And yet current burial practices in Western society are archaic and impersonal. They fail to confront us with the reality of death, and they make it harder to process death or to grieve properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKent Burreson and Beth Hoeltke have been teaching a Christian understanding of death and natural burial for many years. They argue that natural burial--laying the body into the earth in a way that allows it to decompose naturally--is not only better for the environment but is also a more accurate picture of Christian hope of the resurrection. Grounded in sound Christian teaching about death and burial, they advocate for natural burial and offer practical instructions for navigating the complex questions around burial practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eLay Me in God's Good Earth\u003c\/i\u003e is not only an immensely practical guide to natural burial; it is also an application of the hope of the resurrection to those grieving the loss of their loved ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e IVP\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/20\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781514007600\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.49h x 5.57w x 0.60d","brand":"Kent Burreson, Beth Hoeltke","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44337805721781,"sku":"9781514007600","price":18.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_973d20de-c941-4ae0-9c9c-b59748894ae8.jpg?v=1719329266","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/lay-me-in-gods-good-earth-a-christian-approach-to-death-and-burial-9781514007600","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
