Heaven is For Real

I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. Revelation 22:13

 
Last week I posted books about becoming a Christian. This week, it is about the hope we have in the end. As I sat down to write this post I was listening to one of my favourite songs of encouragement about the end on youtube by Natalie Grant called The End.  You can listen to it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLHe0W9Q1Rk

Jonathon Edwards on Heaven and Hell
by Jonathon Edwards

We must reacquaint modern Christians with the eschatologically driven preaching and teaching of Edwards. This word “eschatological” may trip some readers up at first encounter, but it refers simply to “last things”, things of eternity and ultimate significance. We exhume Edwards' scripturally fired material on the reality of the afterlife, the terror of hell, the glories of heaven, and the shape life must take in light of these realities.

A couple of people got a prize last week for writing down the book they are reading now in the comment section of the blog.  There were a couple of people that didn't get to comment because of how I had my comments set.  Sorry about that!  I have changed my settings so anyone can comment. 

I really like to read anywhere.  Actually I carry a book pretty well anywhere I go but my two favourite places to read are in bed and in my back yard in the summer.  What is your favourite place to read?  Make your comment here or on Facebook and you may have a prize on Sunday!

  1. On the couch, wrapped in a warm blanket, sipping a cup of tea. However that rarely happens so you'll usually find me reading while I dry my hair, eating my breakfast, waiting in the car for my kids...

  2. Hey Kathy took my answer... I was going to say on the couch under a blanket with a cup of tea... Or at the beach or Clear Lake.
