What is Heaven really going to be like?
What will we look like?
What will we do every day?
Won't Heaven get boring after a while?
We all have questions about what Heaven will be
like, and after twenty-five years of extensive research,
Dr. Randy Alcorn has the answers.
In the most comprehensive and definitive book on
Heaven to date, Randy invites you to picture Heaven
the way Scripture describes it—a bright, vibrant,
and physical New Earth, free from sin, suffering,
and death, and brimming with Christ's presence,
wondrous natural beauty, and the richness of human
culture as God intended it.
God has put eternity in our hearts. Now, Randy Alcorn
brings eternity to light in a way that will surprise
you, spark your imagination, and change how you
live today.
If you've always thought of Heaven as a realm of
disembodied spirits, clouds, and eternal harp strumming,
you're in for a wonderful surprise.
This is a book about real people with real bodies
enjoying close relationships with God and each other,
eating, drinking, working, playing, traveling, worshiping,
and discovering on a New Earth. Earth as God created
it. Earth as he intended it to be.
And the next time you hear someone say, "We
can't begin to imagine what Heaven will be like,"
you will be able to tell them, "I can."

Reader Responses
I have attended evangelical churches all my life, and even graduated from Moody Bible Institute. Yet I do not recall the truths of Heaven ever being presented as clearly as you did in your book, Heaven. I've heard of the "New Heavens and New Earth" many times, but never really understood much about it. Nor do I recall ever hearing of the "intermediate Heaven."
Thank you so much for your wonderful treatment of a subject about which, sadly, Christians are ignorant. I too was part of that group until I read your book. To paraphrase the quote on the dust cover, "I can now imagine what Heaven will be like." - E. C.
