Digital Grief - Godson Jacob

In Digital Grief, Rev. Dr. Godson Jacob, PhD, a hospice chaplain, explores what it means to accompany the dying and the bereaved in a digital age. Drawing on real chaplaincy experience, he examines how technology reshapes memory, presence, and moral care at the end of life - and offers practical wisdom for navigating online memorials, digital legacies, and virtual rituals with theological depth and human tenderness.

Written for chaplains, bereavement teams, educators, and interdisciplinary hospice colleagues, this book is both a reflective guide and a practical companion: honoring the timeless work of presence while facing honestly the new terrain of grief in the digital afterlife.
