Last Call: Suicide: An Unfinished Life, Paperback/John Mark Caton

On August 1, 2007, Pastor John Mark Caton was heading home from work when he noticed multiple missed messages from his brother, James. He quickly sensed a looming problem as he returned the call. This would be the "Last Call" he would ever have with his brother, who took his life early the next morning. In the following years, John Mark walked through a valley of loss filled with questions that surround losing a loved one to suicide. The answers to these questions were not discovered in seminary theology classes or seminars but learned through personally walking this struggle and desperately leaning on Scripture for guidance. Suicide is a leading cause of death in the United States; few families escape losing a loved one in this manner. The questions addressed in Last Call- Suicide: An Unfinished Life are the same questions that torment everyone who has experienced such a loss. The confusion and anger that follow a suicide when a loved one chooses to end his/her own life are shared by all who walk this journey. Writing with the heart of a pastor, John Mark offers a path to healing.
