Product information
  • Hope to Die: The Christian Meaning of Death and the Resurrection of the Body
  • Hahn explores the significance of death from a Catholic perspective
  • How Scripture and Catholic teaching explain how we are destined for glorification

As Catholics, we believe in the resurrection of the body. We profess it in our creed. We’re taught that to bury and pray for the dead are corporal and spiritual works of mercy. We honor the dead in our Liturgy through the Rite of Christian burial. We do all of this, and more, because when Jesus Christ took on flesh for the salvation of our souls he also bestowed great dignity on our bodies.

In Hope to Die: The Christian Meaning of Death and the Resurrection of the Body, Scott Hahn explores the significance of death and burial from a Catholic perspective. The promise of the bodily resurrection brings into focus the need for the dignified care of our bodies at the hour of death.

Unpacking both Scripture and Catholic teaching, Hope to Die reminds us that we are destined for glorification on the last day.

Hope to Die

"This book gave me a brand new prospective on Death."

RANDY B. (5/5)

I cannot give this enough stars

"This book NEEDS to be read by every priest to preach on, and should be read by every Catholic who has the time. This is one of the things we recite in the Creed every week, but I barely understood it what it REALLY meant until this book. Wow. So deep, so rich, and takes away the scariness of death in a real way. Also, the last bit that makes distinctions on the Catholic teaching on cremation were EXTREMELY helpful and good."

Hope to Die bu Scott Hahn

"I love most everything written by Scott Hahn, and he did not disappoint with his latest book, Hope to Die. However, be warned that this book is mostly about the Church’s teaching about Burial vs Cremation. It is very well done and I’m very glad I read it, but I must admit that I didn’t realize what the focus of the book would be. I would definitely recommend this book. Hahn once again gives a well laid out and easily understood ‘argument’ of authentic Catholic teaching."

Beth W. (4/5)

"My son died 4 years ago & I am learning more about life after death with this book. I want to know what my son’s world is like & I’m am no longer afraid if death."
