Description

Synopsis:

Our lives here are so often cluttered with the “cares of this world” that we fail to consider heavenly priorities and how they should be reflected in our earthly ones. At the beginning of Jesus’ most famous prayer, He teaches us to pray that God’s will “be done on earth as it is in heaven”. What heaven is up to is critical for us to understand if we’re going to live biblically. Pastor Greg Laurie explains that heaven is anything but a long, boring church service. People in heaven know about the time and place of ongoing events on earth. They are rational and recall everything from their earthly days, but most importantly for us, they have a unique perspective from which we can learn a great deal.

In this rich and relevant study, Greg sheds scriptural light on the sensational books and stories about people going to heaven and coming back, answers the nagging questions we are all dying to ask, and guides us to focus―right now―on what really matters.

From the Back Cover:

Heaven—the very word is a comfort and a mystery. You may have an idea of what it will be like, but do you know what the Bible actually says about Heaven? More important, do you understand how the truth about Heaven can radically refresh your perspective here on earth?

After the death of his oldest son, author and evangelist Greg Laurie immersed himself in Scripture to learn all he could about Heaven. As It Is in Heaven is the result of his in-depth study.

In these pages, you will find your passion to reach the lost and establish a spiritual legacy renewed, your sense of determination in prayer reinvigorated, your faith in the King of Kings rekindled, and your compassion for the plight of persecuted Christians stronger than ever.
