Review

"Randy Alcorn’s new book was inspired by his 2004 bestseller, HEAVEN. One hundred brief entries combine with Bible verses to illustrate that heaven is real and to explain what heaven is really like. With a capable narration, Alcorn dispels the notion that heaven is a boring place, with people confined to clouds, harps in hand. He powerfully describes where past, present, and future heaven are and why Jesus is the doorway to heaven and eternal life. His vivid descriptions of hell, the alternative to heaven, are compelling and believable. He shares eternal promises with clarity, among them the promise that souls are born for eternal life, not death, and that their eternal home, heaven or hell, is their choice. “Jesus is the person, heaven is the place, and both are real.” "
