Keeping the end in mind shapes how we live our lives in the here and now. Living life backward means taking the one thing in our future that is certain—death—and letting that inform our journey before we get there. Looking to the book of Ecclesiastes for wisdom, Living Life Backward was written to shake up our expectations and priorities for what it means to live “the good life.” Considering the reality of death helps us pay attention to our limitations as human beings and receive life as a wondrous gift from God—freeing us to live wisely, generously, and faithfully for God’s glory and the good of his world.

______________

“David Gibson’s expositions of Ecclesiastes are like Ecclesiastes itself: sometimes shocking, often tantalizing, always refreshing. He deftly combines serious stuff with a light touch, clear style, and gospel relief. You will repeatedly run into ‘think-stoppers’; he will make new grooves in your grey matter that weren’t there before, and you will often admit, ‘I wish I’d have thought to put it like that!’ I think the writer of Ecclesiastes would be pleased with David’s work.” Dale Ralph Davis, former pastor; Former Professor of Old Testament, Reformed Theological Seminary, Jackson

Not for labrador chewing.
Size: One Size, Style: Stick, Size: One Size, Style: Stick
Not recommended for a Labrador if they enjoy retrieving then chewing, because the stick will only last 20-30mins. The stick does float, and is hollow which is good when it’s been bitten down to ball size.

Great toy except the stitching
Size: Large, Style: Duck Slingshot, Size: Large, Style: Duck Slingshot
Excellent toy. My Lab immediately loved it and I used it to get her to swim for the first time! However, after just one use, the stitching started coming apart under the head. I wish it had been more durable, my dog loves it.

My dogs love these.
Size: One Size, Style: Stick
My dogs are chewers and we use these for the dogs to chase them into the lake. They float well and are easy to see. Even if they start to chew on them they are substantial enough to last through the summer. The dogs love them. We’ve been using them for several summers now but hide them until it is time to play fetch in the water again.

Good for swimming
Size: One Size, Style: Stick
This is my dog's favorite toy for dock diving. It's lightweight but a good solid size for retrieving and it floats with no issue. I do have to keep it put away when not swimming or he'll tear it to pieces so if you have a dog that likes to destroy toys, just be mindful.

Very Realistic… Might even fool your pet dog!
This is perfect for stuffed dogs I bought this for my daughter. My nine year olds friend has an emotional support stuffed dog and my youngest wanted one too. Everything is very realistic. Perfect enough food and bowl that when I put it down on the floor my Golden Doodle sniffed it for around 3 minutes before determining it wasn’t real. Excellent for kids that want to make their stuffie dog feel like they’re real. I definitely recommend this purchase.
