Scott G. Lynch

About the Author I have studied God’s word for the bulk of my life and through those studies and a “best friend” relationship with Jesus Christ, I have not only come to peace with my physical death but I long to be in the presence of my Lord. I do not long for death as I am very happily married and love raising my children. I have three sons and one daughter who range from thirty-two years old down to twelve years old. I also have one grandson and two granddaughters who keep me hopping and young. We call Sheboygan, Wisconsin home and live just a few blocks from Lake Michigan where God’s power is on display every day of the year. I have been a member of the same church for the last thirty-six years and love working with our youth. God has blessed me with a truly amazing family and life!

Introduction

Why Are We Afraid to Die?

What Do We Have to Look Forward To?

Who Can Save Us from Death, and How?

How Can I Stop Fearing Death?

This book is dedicated to many great family members and friends, a few of whom I will name below.

First of all I need to mention my wife, Barb, who has been an amazing source of strength and joy throughout our marriage; second, my children, Tim, Trent, Tristina, and Tony, who are an inexhaustible source of joy in my life; and finally, my father, Gary, and stepmom Beverly and grandmother Dorothy, who helped nurture and mold me during my youth and beyond. I would also be remiss if I didn’t mention my mother, Beverly, and grandfather Ed, who have crossed the finish line and are spending every day in the presence of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Last and most important, I would like to dedicate this book to my Master Jesus Christ, to whom I can attribute every good thing in my life. He is the reason for my peace, my strength, my joy, and of course, my hope!
