I like to discuss death and what it means and how we should talk about it but I’m not the Death Lady.” Hoeltke, who leads the graduate school at Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, started writing about death about three years ago, motivated by the connections she was seeing between her academic research in the theology of creation and what seemed to her to be a gap in how Western culture addresses or rather, doesn’t address the way we die.
