Thinking Faith S02E05 - Navigating Faith, Euthanasia, and Hope with Amanda Achtman Part 2

Apr 17, 2025

In this episode of 'Thinking Faith,' hosts Deacon Eric and Dr. Brett Salkeld converse with Amanda Achtman about her project 'Dying to Meet You,' centered around death, suffering, and cultural renewal. Amanda shares her journey from politics to her year-long blog on dying, exploring how suffering provides meaning in life. They discuss euthanasia's impact, the importance of facing death, and how personal stories can bring profound connections and healing. This week's discussion emphasizes the value of discussing death candidly, the theological underpinnings of suffering, and practical ways to restore humanity in these conversations.
