The Hope of Heaven: Starting Eternal Life in the Here and Now

As believers, we know that one day we will see our Savior face to face in the new heavens and new earth. But as we go about our busy lives, heaven can feel like a vague and distant hope. We look to God’s promises in the Bible for encouragement, but we may struggle to understand some of the pictures it gives us of our future home. 

Drawing from personal experiences and vivid imagery from Scripture, Joni Eareckson Tada helps readers grasp just how rich the hope of heaven is. She helps us understand why the Bible uses symbols to describe it and gives helpful answers to questions many readers may have. Joni’s minibook paints a compelling vision of heaven as a place of restoration, beauty, and perfect communion with God—a vision that will rekindle our excitement about the true "happily ever after" that awaits us. 

Joni Eareckson Tada heads up Joni and Friends, a worldwide ministry to people with disabilities and their families, and is the best-selling author of many helpful gospel-centered Christian books, including When God Weeps and A Place of Healing: Wrestling with the Mysteries of Suffering, Pain, and God's Sovereignty.
