It could be my own experience with grief, suffering, and the dying process that makes Caleb&#8217;s sentiments on death and unique perspective a kind of solace to me.<\/p>\n<p>If death and dying has touched your world, I think you&#8217;ll feel the same way about his <a href=\"http:\/\/calebwilde.com\">blog<\/a>. If it hasn&#8217;t, at some point it will. That&#8217;s just the facts.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking from experience, I suggest purposefully familiarizing yourself with the inevitable issues of mortality (your own and your loved ones&#8217;) before they arrive without warning and manage to capsize your world, crush your faith, or in some other way batter you. And for purposes of minister and soul care it&#8217;s quite helpful too.<\/p>\n<p>This is part one of our chat. Check back this week for part 2.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7808\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7808\" style=\"width: 384px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/45rzOjWPWpU\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7808\" title=\"Screen Shot 2012-02-15 at 10.38.22 AM\" src=\"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Screen-Shot-2012-02-15-at-10.38.22-AM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"384\" height=\"249\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Screen-Shot-2012-02-15-at-10.38.22-AM.png 384w, https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Screen-Shot-2012-02-15-at-10.38.22-AM-350x227.png 350w, https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/Screen-Shot-2012-02-15-at-10.38.22-AM-300x194.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7808\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(click for video)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;As a kid, I played hide-and-go-seek in caskets.&#8221; -Caleb Wilde<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5626],"tags":[5082,5509,5083,927,23,5510,34,1550,1572,48,56,2864,79,3416],"class_list":["post-7806","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-spark-my-muse","tag-caleb-wilde","tag-caskets","tag-confessions-of-a-funeral-director","tag-death","tag-evil","tag-funerals","tag-grief","tag-growth","tag-halloween","tag-loss","tag-pain","tag-resurrection","tag-suffering","tag-theodicy"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7806","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7806"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7806\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7810,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7806\/revisions\/7810"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7806"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7806"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lisadelay.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7806"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
