CHILDREN'S BOOK INDEX

Answers kids will understand— based on the best-selling book for adults
Enjoy exploring life in Heaven. After all, it's a place where you can live forever someday—a place without fear, anger, sadness, or sickness. And it's not just a place without bad stuff. It's a place full of great stuff: beauty, joy, fun, lots of activity, and rest when you need it. We'll have endless adventures together with Jesus and each other. It's a place where you can live with the wonderful and fascinating God who created you. And it's a place where you can hang out with all sorts of kind and interesting people who will be your friends forever.

This book has many questions and answers people have asked about life after death, and it's especially geared to children ages 8-12.

In a language kids can understand, Randy Alcorn explores Biblical answers to the questions kids often have about heaven. As in the adult title, Heaven, he addresses the difference between the present Heaven, where we go when we die, and the New Earth, where we will live forever with Jesus after he returns. Intended for kids age 8-12, Heaven for Kids is sure to be an excellent resource for families, especially those in which the parents have read the adult title and wish to pass on that same level of understanding to their children. The book features ten chapters of questions, and answers based on scripture and written in a style relevant to today's kids. The book also has a summary of the Gospel for those who want to be sure they are going to Heaven someday. Randy encourages kids to live "in Light of Heaven."

Kids have always asked . . .

Do we become angels in heaven?
Is heaven "up"?
What will we eat?
Will I have to play a harp?
. . . and adults have always wanted to give better answers.

Here's good news!
As a parent and a grandparent, Randy Alcorn knows how important it is to pass along the biblical truths about heaven. So in Heaven for Kids, Randy has adapted for a younger generation his best-selling adult version of Heaven. He's made all the great information and fresh teaching accessible and applicable for kids. Heaven for Kids:
  • is set up in an easy-to-use question-and-answer format.
  • covers all the topics that kids wonder about, as well as questions they haven't even thought of yet.
  • provides an excellent resource for independent readers aged 8-12.
  • contains kid-friendly language and anecdotes that are sure to spark ongoing family discussions about our promised destination.
They'll ask . . . be ready!

 
Reader Responses

I absolutely love this book. I have a progressive disease and worry about my young child growing up without his mom. I read this book first and found great comfort in what it has to say about Heaven. I appreciate all the references to scripture, so you can look things up for yourself if you choose. I will now begin reading this to my son so he will have a better understanding of what Heaven is all about. This book is very uplifting. A must-have for all Christian homes. - C. H.
