Last week I was reeling from the sudden death of a friend.  This week I remain shocked, but am also stirred up by another person I love being diagnosed with terminal cancer.  Death rocks our world.  This is the first in a short series that will grapple with how we can best make sense of it for ourselves and others.  Death is the new sex - almost a taboo in many societies.  If this podcast upsets you or stirs you up, do get in contact, speak to someone or read "On Death" a short book by Tim Keller.  Yes, there are still a couple of lame jokes.
