Duration: 90 min 47 s
Description: When a believer dies, Christians are meant to hold aching grief and active hope together; admitting the double grief of losing a loved one while still being strangers in the world, then acting on God's promises just as Abraham did by purchasing a burial plot as a token of future hope, and finally anticipating the resurrection promises fulfilled in Christ.
