The last enemy, preparing to win the fight of your life
Researchers continue to spend time and money looking for ways to prolong life. However, the reality of the matter remains the same―we are all going to die at some point in time. Written with creativity and honesty, The Last Enemy speaks to Christians facing death or troubled by its inevitability. It brings clarity and hope to the subject of death and dying by exploring our emotions and reactions, the pain imposed by the enemy, and Jesus’ triumph over sin and death. The Last Enemy encourages readers to focus on what matters most and prepare for ultimate victory.

Michael Wittmer teaches theology at Grand Rapids Theological Seminary, and he enjoys writing books on important theological topics that can be read by any interested person. Many scholars write for other scholars. While it's important to write books that don't oversimplify and are credible with other scholars, his ministry is to write books for the church.

"Need a recipe for a great book? Start with a topic of desperate relevance. We all face death. Add a writer who makes it look easy to write engaging, accessible, sophisticated theology. Who better than Mike Wittmer? The secret, though, to this recipe is the glorious truth that Christ has conquered death. This may sound strange, but as unpleasnat as it may be to think about death, Wittmer's joy in Christ makes this a fun book to read." James Hamilton, author of "God's Glory in Salvation through Judgement"; Associate Professor of Biblical Theology, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
