Heaven: why it may not be what you have always heard - Paperback

What happens when you die? What is Paradise? Where is Heaven?

In a profoundly personal and theologically rich exploration, Rubel Shelly invites readers into a deeply human conversation about eternity. In a book written at his dying wife's request, he shares some of their conversations as he and Myra tried to visualize what she was about to experience.

A biblical view of Heaven strengthens faith, makes hope more genuine, and embraces God's love for us. Combining scholarship, pastoral experience, personal grief over Myra's death, and confident hope in God's promises, you are invited to become a conversation partner with them about what lies ahead.

This book challenges you to see Heaven not as escape, but as renewal. Not as some ethereal place "beyond the azure blue," but as the fulfillment of God's original purpose for this planet and our mission as people in his image.

"Look! God's dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them" (Rev 21:3).
