Note:"How we treat our bodies in death matters. How Christians deal with death-how they think about death, talk about death, and treat the dead-is a form of witness. It is a witness about the holiness of our bodies and the life for which we are meant. This book explores what happens to our bodies in the bodily resurrection and why it's fitting to bury the dead rather than cremate the dead."-- Provided by publisher.
