My sister and I have been planning Dad's memorial service and she wants it to celebrate his 'eternal rest in Christ' while I can barely believe in anything after watching him suffer, and every conversation about the service becomes a fight about whether God is good. We both want to honor him but we can't agree on what that looks like when we're in completely different spiritual places.
