About this listen

David Gibson Explores How Death, Viewed Biblically, Teaches Us How to Truly Live

Keeping the end in mind shapes how we live our lives in the here and now. Living life backward means taking the one thing in our future that is certain—death—and letting that inform our journey before we get there.

Looking to the book of Ecclesiastes for wisdom, Living Life Backward was written to shake up our expectations and priorities for what it means to live "the good life." Considering the reality of death helps us pay attention to our limitations as human beings and receive life as a wondrous gift from God—freeing us to live wisely, generously, and faithfully for God's glory and the good of his world.

  • Biblical: Walks through the book of Ecclesiastes chapter by chapter
  • Applicable: Teaches listeners to live wisely, freely, and generously in light of eternity
  • Hopeful: Counters a modern worldview that pretends we can fix, avoid, or control every facet of our lives
  • Practical: Includes discussion questions at the end of each chapter
